Gary Nicklaus shot a pair of 66s for the lowest 36-hole score at sectional qualifying in Columbus, Ohio. Nicklaus was playing the course he designed for the first time and putting on a show for the club members who were privledged enough to get invitations to the event. So Jack Nicklaus will be at the U.S. Open at Southern Hills in Tulsa on June 14-17, after all. I'm more excited about Gary. That's my excitement.
All good things come to an end.
I've been playing since I was 17 years old. I didn't expect to play until I was 85. I knew I'd have to stop somewhere. Nicklaus was hardly sentimental about the passage of time. He has little time to look back.
