Who Won

P: The U.S. women's team, over Britain's best women tennis players, to take the Wightman Cup for the 15th time in a row, six matches to one ; at the Longwood Cricket Club, Brookline, Mass. In the fourth and clinching match, Britain's Kay Tuckey was trounced, 6-1, 6-3, by 16-year-old Maureen Connolly of San Diego, the youngest U.S. Cup team member in history.

P: Dorothy Kirby of Atlanta, over Cleveland Schoolteacher Claire Doran, the National Women's Amateur Golf championship, 2 and 1 ; at St. Paul's Town & Country Club. In the 18 years since she won the Georgia State women's tournament as a 13-year-old girl wonder, Golfer Kirby has played in 10 nationals, twice before reached the final round (1939, 1947). Next stop: the National Women's Open in her home town.

P: Australia's Frank Sedgman and Ken McGregor over Australia's Mervyn Rose and Don Candy, 10-8, 6-4, 4-6, 7-5, the postponed final of the U.S. National Doubles championship; at Forest Hills.

P: E. Michael Wayland, 18, who outshot 1,694 opponents at Vandalia, Ohio, by breaking 99 of 100 targets to take trap-shooting's most prized trophy, the Grand American Handicap, and more than $8,000 in prize money.
