Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Open Golf Champ. DESCRIPTION: More than half the competitors had begun their final round at St Andrews in the rain, when the freak storm burst upon the course. No wonder it was decided to stop play in the Centenary Open Golf Championship. Next day, play was surprisingly possible. Our pictures show Kel Nagle holing out to win by one stroke from Palmer of the USA. SHOTLIST: Key scene. GV course. LS crowd under umbrellas. LS same. MLS same. LS course. LS course. GV course.
