...maybe nine holes a week. After a tournament, I always quit for a week. I think golf should be fun, and I wouldn't have much fun as a pro." During the Open, while the pros were getting their sleep and spending long hours on the practice tee grooving their swings, Amateur Lacoste was swinging in groovier fashion-bowling, taking in a movie, dancing a wild midnight Charleston, giving piggyback rides to children in her hotel...
...fifth Open title, shot an 80 in the second round; Louise Suggs, a two-time winner, pulled to within one stroke of Catherine-only to overshoot the green on the par-five, 534-yd. 16th hole and take a double-bogey seven.

In all, he used only 29 putts. With a four-stroke lead and only the par-five 542-yd. 18th left to play, Jack decided to take no chances...

Since her hem was already three inches above the knee, Lorraine could but blush and tee-hee, but later she went solemnly to the heart of the matter: "My boy friend would like them shorter too.
