SNOPPER IN GOLFING COMEBACK
(from our golf correspondent)

In a surprise return to the fairways of Poult Wood, yesterday saw Snopper celebrating his 68th birthday with an improved performance. Coming after a disastrous display a couple of weeks ago, when I reported the loss of at least 12 golf balls during an unrecorded round (Snopper had conveniently lost his pencil) yesterday saw him return a score of 99, which was partly achieved by a liberal interpretation of some of the Royal and Ancient Rules, coupled with some dubious arithmetic. In addition, a generous handicap of 28 meant that he was only a few shots over par for the course at the end.

This could be a turning point in Snopper`s faltering career, especially as yesterday`s lost ball count reached only five. Titlelist & Co might just be a little concerned. Well, maybe not.
