| The United States regained the Curtis Cup at the East Course of the Merion Golf Club, Ardmore, Pa., in early September. The Americans won the three foursomes and went on to score a 6- 3 triumph. Miss Frances Stephens, then the British Women's Amateur Champion, won a point for her side with a 1- up victory over Miss Mary Lena Faulk, the 1953 United States Women's Amateur Champion. Miss Faulk, 1 down, scored a birdie 2 on the 35th hole to tie the match, but Miss Stephens came back to hole a 24- foot putt on the 36th green to decide it. |
