JACK NICKLAUS BIOGRAPHY |
|
|
Born Ohio, USA, Jack Nicklaus is considered to be the greatest golfer of the modern era and arguably the greatest in the game's history. Among his countless victories are a record 18 Majors.
Jack Nicklaus' induction into golf came from his father who was a chemist. After sustaining an ankle injury Jack Nicklaus was advised to walk a few miles every day as part of his therapy. Jack Nicklaus decided to take up golf and 10 year old Jack caddied for him. In time, Jack Nicklaus himself took up the game and within a few years became a very competitive amateur. However, he decided to follow in his father's footsteps and became an apprentice chemist rather than turning professional.
The great Bobby Jones, who never turned professional, was the role model which shaped Jack Nicklaus outlook on golf. In 1959, Jack Nicklaus won his first prestigious championship, the US Amateurs. After winning the event again in 1961, he decided to turn professional. What better way to introduce himself than to win the 1962 US Open. |
