And to think, at La Costa C C in La Jolla, Ca., I was 16 yrs old standing 4 feet away from Jack while he was talking to the head pro after his Saturday round...just the 3 of us. After he and the pro had finished, he asked me, and I quote, "What can help you with, son.?" My reply, "Nothing, Mr. Nicklaus, I just wanted to congratulate you on a nice round." He said thank you and we went our separate ways. Not a "Can I have your autograph.", not a handshake, nothing but a simple compliment. I don't know why it went that way, maybe I was in too much awe standing there next to, til this day, the greatest sports hero in my life.

There is a very fine line between the debate of who the GOAT in golf is. Thing with this .. I think Tiger edges Jack. He brought the game to the coolness factor ..

@@teemo3139 the fine line you referred to actually is a very wide gap. Woods had a far greater and more impactful Public Relations and Branding campaign, but that doesn’t make him the GOAT.

Jack Nicklaus is golf's greatest champion. 18 Majors, 6 Masters, and 19 2nd place finishes in the Majors. Tiger has a total of "6" 2nd place finishes in the majors. So Nicklaus has a combined total of 37 finishes in the #1 & 2 slots. Tiger "21". Jack Nicklaus is the greatest golfer of all time until someone surpasses his numbers. And I honestly believe he played in a more competitive era competing against Palmer, Watson, Player, Trevino, Miller, Floyd, Boras, Weiskopf, and many others.

He could have stood on that foot bridge for the final time, made it about himself, and NOBODY would have given it a second thought. Hell, you could tell Tom Watson wanted ZERO part in standing up there with Jack, because he knew it was HIS moment, and Tom knew Jack deserved ALL the applause for being the great golfer and sportsman he was. But that wasnt Jack, and he went out of his way to share that moment not only with his son, and the caddies, but one of his greatest competitors and friends as well. That says it all about Mr. Nicklaus. A great champion, but an even better person. I love you Jack. Youll always be one of my heroes, and it was such an honor to watch you play the game of golf.

@@bigghitter7 Tiger will NEVER have the career Jack had. Tiger can NEVER say "I took on the greatest golfers in the history of the game". And Tiger has so many more advantages than Jack had; better equipment, easier courses, medical science that saved him from being a busted up cripple, walking with a cane the rest of his life. And most importantly; Tiger has NO class. Jack had infinite class.

There was all kinds of reasons he should have missed that putt but, that’s why he’s the GOAT
