The pilot reported that he was high and fast on approach to the 5,000-foot long, 75-foot wide asphalt runway. After touchdown on the main wheels, and with the tailwheel still airborne, he applied full power in a balked landing and the aircraft veered off the left side of runway 11 impacting the right wingtip with the ground. The pilot reported that the winds were calm, and there was no mechanical malfunction with the aircraft during the event. He further stated that during the balked landing he 'lost control and ground looped to the left.'
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the balked landing.
