He is a professional golfer.
29 years
he was a good high school basketball player
Steve Nicklaus, Jack's second oldest son, played for Florida State University. He was a wide receiver and tight end.
Yes Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus.
In terms of major championships he has 14, Jack Nicklaus has 18. In terms of professional wins Tiger Woods has 92, Jack Nicklaus has 114. Tiger Woods is still active whereas Jack Nicklaus has retired. We will not know until Tiger finishes his career. Some would say he is, but the older generation would probably say Jack is.
This is a huge year for him in the majors, with The Masters that he has won in 1997, 2001, 2002 and 2005. The US Open at Pebble beach where he won by 15 shots in 2000 and The Open at ST Andrews where he won the last two times it was there, in 2000 and 2005. If he wants to catch Jack Nicklaus he will have to play. It is expected he will return to action at the 2010 Masters, in which case he will want to get a couple of events in beforehand so he could return to action mid March. No one knows for certain.
