Canadian Open
Tommy Armour has only to win the Open Championship of Mexico to hold title to all North American golf. He was already U. S. Open Champion. Last week he won the Canadian Open at Toronto, with 288, defeating Hagen, Diegel, Watrous, Macfarlane, Smith and many another.
Armour was a few strokes behind through the early rounds. On the 524 yard 13th on his final round he put a brassie on the green and holed the putt for a 3. This eagle threw him ahead of the field, and as he finished in careful figures, won the title. Leo Diegel and Billy Burke, Greenwich, Conn., broke the course record with 68, five under par. The first Canadian to finish was Andy Kay, Lambton. eleventh, 297.
