Back Nine Treacherous In the 74 bracket with Snead was Gary Middlecoff, who like so many in the first round came grief on the back nine. Three holes, the 12th and 13lh, all water' holes, gave most of trouble. Among those who came lo grief on lhat treacherous back nine was the 48-year-old Jimmy Demaret, who went out in 34, two under par, and then soared to a 44 when he went inlo the water on three consecutive holes, starting with the lllh- That gave him a 78.
