He's still got it!
When you see 75-year-old Jack Nicklaus these days at the Masters, it's usually for the ceremonial tee shot to start the tournament. But the Golden Bear showed he's still got game Wednesday, firing an ace in the par-3 tournament at Augusta.
Jack also called the shot. In an interview with ESPN's Scott van Pelt moments before he stepped up on the tee at the fourth hole, the golfer who holds the record for the most major tournament victories with 18 told van Pelt he felt he was going to put the ball into the hole. On his tee shot. So he did.
Facing a bit of a breeze and with the hole 123 yards away, Nicklaus delivered a shot that hopped twice, skidded and then began to back up towards the hole. Naturally, it went in.
He'll be back, bright and early Thursday, along with Arnold Palmer and Gary Player to lead the players off the first tee with the ceremonial tee shots to open the Masters. He'll probably split the fairway.
