Major Marsh was a very Powerful golfer whose play around ihe pin was the strongest part of his game. He was a beautiful putter, standing well up to the ball and using a long hickory shafted putter for the short putts and an old hickory driver full length, for the long ones. From any position on the green he was out to hole the shot.
Major Marsh was in great form before his departure, breaking 70 over Hungjao repeatedly. In his last game he completed the course in 65 as.the course is being played now.
Qut:—5, 4, 3, 8, 4, 3, 4, 2, 3-99. In:—3, 5, 4, 2,3, 4, 3, 4, 402.
He has been playing a lot with "The Tiger", the Chinese Groundsman at Hungjao, who plays so well. In one of his matches against Major Marsh, "The Tiger' went round in 66. The history of "The Tiger" is interesting. About 10 years ago the Secretary of the Hungjao Golf Club thought it. would be a good idea if he could find a caddie who had any leaning towards the game of golf, so that he could be encouraged with a view to becoming a kind of Club professional. He organized a tournament amongst the caddies and discovered to his surprise that many of them broke 90 with ease, At the end of the competition he was then told that "The Tiger", who had been his old caddie and who had been promoted to a groundsman, was a much better player than any of the caddies. He was then produced and in his first game against the Secretary, he went round in 78. He had never been seen to handle a club and where he managed to practise is still a mystery. It is only recently that he has been playing at all regularly with the result that his game ha improved. He is more of a steady player than a spectular one but his long game is good enough to outdistance all but the long hitters.
