World Pro Tour (4) The results are not known definitively. However, American Lawn Tennis reported that Vines had an edge of 11–9 in the first phase of their tour from January 10 through February 16 and that Vines led Tilden by a 19-match margin after the second phase of their tour, played from March 21 through May 13. Tilden had won 17 times for the entire year, per an Associated Press report,[30] so a probable win-loss record at tour's end on May 13 was 36–17 in Vines' favor (slightly over 50 matches would have been played, per Ray Bowers). |
