Gene Sarazen Wins
Agua Caliente Open
Breaks Course Record in Final
Round to Win $10,000
Tourney Purse.
By Walter B. Clausen.
(Associated Press Staff Writer.)
AGUA CALIENTE, Lower Cal..
Mexico, Jan. 23. - Ten thousand
dollars was pocketed by Gene Sar-
azen of New York for four days of
Iolf here. It was the biggest money
purse ever offered in tournament
play. He galloped into leadership
of the Agua Caliente open, just likei
he broke into fame in 1922.
Coming from behind, he estab-
lished the course record here with
a 68, but instead of just taking a
one stroke lead like he did in the
1922 national open from Bobby
Jones and John Black at Skokie,f
Chicago, today he passed up Hor-1
ton Smith of Joplin, Mo., and Al
Espinosa of Chicago, by two
strokes'
The up and down of the four days
on this new and treacherous
course was much like the ups andj
downs across the highway on the
roulette and other gaming tables.
Perhaps the jingle of silver dollars{
and chips at night, droned in withj
a mental jingle of the $10,000 first
award, may have jangled the
nerves of the 52 profession.is whoa
were playing with six amateurs in
the most colorful of all golf tovr.-
naments.
And pay-off night tonight, Wa.
like the eternal hope of those who
crowd the gaming tables for the
winnings come high. Look these'
figures over: Gene Sarazen, New,
York, $10,000, score 295. Horton
Smith, Joplin, Mo., $3,750, score,
297; Al Espinosa, Chicago, $3,750,
score 297; Olin Dutra Santa Moni-,
ca, Cal., $1,260, score 298; Mortie
