"I know my family and my family knows me" Amen Jack, Amen!
I'll admit I got a little teary eyed there at the end, great man and great champion.
I think Jack is very underrated with his putting! Clutch! Cheer's
The benchmark as a golfer set so high……May be caught ……benchmark as a human being….never be caught . We are so lucky to able to look back at these films .
The problem is Nicklaus set the bar…. And that bar was set on and off the course….. When you measure a GOAT that's all that counts. And that's why Nicklaus is the GOAT
The best golfer i have seen a true champion and a wonderful human being cheer's bob from down under.
Loved the program; Jack will always be #1 for me. But if you're going to run subtitles, get them right. These are ludicrous, and if I were deaf, I'd have no idea what they're saying with the stuff they're putting up there.
Jack is golf royalty.
하품도 안하는데 눈물이 찔끔 하네요!
Jack is my first golf ☆STAR☆
The greatest pressure putter of all time. When he needed it he got it. A great mind and competitor.
There's Black Fang, and White Fang,…Soupy Sales!
It's a terrible disservice modern players and fans are doing to him by assuming his dominance was somehow diminished by poor competition. Frankly, I'd give anything for those people to have to compete with him in an age-balanced situation. They would then change their proud stories — of that I'm certain.

No golfer had "It" like Nicholas……… except Tiger woods lol
Golfers come and they go and there were many great golfers who made this game what it is today, but to me Mr. Nicklaus is Still The Man…..18 Majors, 19 seconds by one or two stroke, Will stand the test of time…Thanks You Mr. Nicklaus for setting the Bar So High, that Only a Saint would ever Try to take it on….
Without question the greatest player of all time.
Jack Nicklaus will always go down as the "Greatest of all time" because of his equipment. No Tour Pro today would play persimmon woods with steel shafts and a balata ball. His 18 Majors would equate to 36 Majors with current-day technology.
I missed Jack's peak years but I'm glad I got to see him win his last major. The greatest ever
Beautiful.
The undisputed GOAT on and off the course.
A family man,through and through.
There needs to be an epic movie made for this champion of a man! 🏆
Jack had IT. Where does IT come from? You’re born with IT. Humans are cool beings. Thank God.
In todays times, Jack would beat Tiger 7 out of 10.
Amazed this tribute did not finish with Jack's birdie on the 18th at St Andrews in 2005, his last competitive round.
MY FAVORITE VIDEO EVER!
1:43 freaking pablo Escobar in the background chilling
I played Jack Nicklaus in my mind playing 10,11, and 12 back to my house every day as a kid… One ball I hit was mine, and the 2nd ball I hit was his … He won every time .. What a great tribute …
Always admired the man and his clubs. Superb mind and will to win for decades. Humility in victory and a champion in defeat to say the least. Ranked #9 of 100 Greatest Athletes of the 20th Century (Sports Illustrated, 1999).
Always great to see a documentary on Jack. What it doesn't tell us is that besides winning 18 majors, he ended up second 19 times. What a champion. And like Kareem's sky hook, Jack had a unique swing and putting style that somehow no one has copied.
35:20 gives me chills. 66 will tie 65 will win, exact number I have in mind go shoot it. Exactly what he did. And 36:42 YES SIR
86 Masters everyone watching on Sunday knew where Jack was. When Seve went in the drink and opened the door, everyone, including Norman and Kite knew who was gonna win. Still recall the chills and tears like it was yesterday. The best.
Character beats competence all the time, but with Jack, we got both.
GOAT for certain.
1980 jack number one in greens in regulation
1980 nicklaus total driving stats(length/accuracy) best in recorded us tour history
best ball striking in the last 43 years was jack in 1980
