of controlling the crowd," said
Gary Player, who followed the
American twosome.
'It's bloody impossible and
pardon my French," said Eng

playing ahead of the U.S. duo.
But Nicklaus and Palmer,
while they realized they -were
holding up play because of the
large gallery the biggest in
French golfing history would
have nothing to do with the
complaint department.
We're here to play golf and
not criticize the course," said
Nicklaus.
'Nor," added Palmer, "to
criticize the organization."
Both had cause for com
plaint, however. Both were
bothered by the constant click
