Last week's article on Zac Ashley drew a clarification on a claim made by the Canterbury Star:
Just for the record Zac is not the youngest winner of the NZ Handicap Singles event. In 1960 Tony Stephens at age 16 won not only the Hurlingham Cup (NZ Handicap Singles) but achieved far greater glory by winning the NZ Open Championship Singles, the NZ Men's Championship Singles, and with Ashley Heenan the NZ Doubles Championship.
Cheers
