The 1914 Wimbledon finalists Norman Brookes and Anthony Wilding had won the Davis Cup for Australasia two weeks before the tournament, defeating the United States team in the challenge round played at the West Side Tennis Club in New York. Both players were entered for the U.S. National Championships but withdrew and returned to England.In National Lawn Tennis Tourney at Newport – Wilding Defaults https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=sBBVAAAAIBAJ&sjid=QT0NAAAAIBAJ&dq=wilding%20tennis%20newport&pg=2150%2C627235 The Paterson Press 25 August 1914Talbert Bill Tennis Observed – The USLTA Men's Singles Champions, 1881–1966 1967 172306 Barre Publishers Barre 92 Finals Men's singles 1914 U.S. National Championships – Men's singles USA 1912 R.
