Greatest Champion of All time. He was the same in victory as in defeat: Classy. Never cussed. Never made a disparaging remark and always supported his opponents and the game of golf. If you want to emulate a professional golfer, Jack is THEE guy.

This was the first golf tournament I remember watching on TV as a teenager, and Nicklaus became my instant idol. I saw him in person 3 years later playing an exhibition match, and got to interview him in 1996 when I was a reporter covering majors. What a thrill, the greatest golf champion of them all.

I still enjoy watching modern golf, but there's something so cool about the way these guys played the game!

Jack Nicklaus is the G.O.A.T.! Let’s look at the facts: 18 Major Victories. 6 Masters, 5 PGAs, 4 US Opens, and 3 Open Championships. He has 19 second place finishes at the major championships. He also played against the best competition during his career. There is no question Jack is G.O.A.T.!

I was at my second Masters, stationed in the JAG office at Fort Gordon. Anyone in the military could attend for 5 bucks provided you were in uniform. I was at 16 when Jack made his putt. I went to Rich’s Department Store on Monday and bought the green and white Hathaway shirt that Jack wore on that Sunday. Still my greatest memory in all of sports.

RIP Tom Weiskopf... true gentleman and one of the greats of this game

[briangreenberg]

RIP Vin Scully, the best play by play man ever. He was great at golf as well as baseball and football.

[douglasthompson]

What more can you say...the greatest player in history.

[ronniehill]

A pleasure to watch, especially as no one is yelling "Get in the hole!" after every shot. Only once at 1:10:07 and 1:10:09. That fan doesn't realize what he started. Thanks a lot dude.

I watched this with my Dad, and that summer we moved to Augusta and I went to my first Masters in 1976. What a great time for golf, and what a great champion Nicklaus was.

So nice to read comments about Jack Nicklaus, who was not only golf's greatest Champion but was one of the greatest sportsman in any sport in any era. He and Arnold Palmer set the standard for how to conduct yourself in victory and in defeat. Their conduct had a huge impact on generations of people, myself included. Nobody likes to lose but Jack set the standard for how to act when things don't go your way. These attributes have disappeared in today's society and several generations have grown up without the example set by Jack and Arnie. Too bad.

Thank you whoever was responsible for having these classic tournaments uploaded!

No better representative of the game than Mr. Jack Nicklaus - the undisputed GOAT on and off the course. 👏

Great memories! I remember watching this live and being on the edge of my seat the entire time. I was 14 years old and had taken up the game, and fell in love with it, 2 years earlier. I also got to meet Jack Nicklaus and get his autograph (along with several other big names at the time) in 1973 when they held the Ligget & Myers Open concurrently with the U.S. Professional Match Play Championship at the course I grew up playing (MacGregor Downs CC).

Jack is a class act. Miller was a great ball striker. love this old footage, superb

[williamhicks]

I’ve really enjoyed watching these old masters broadcasts…. The silences and low key, almost whispered commentary is such a contrast to the modern presentations…. It’s so relaxing….

[robertwynn]

Loved having Ben Wright on commentary.

[stevefowler]

Tom Weiskopf doesn't get much publicity these days as one of the greats, but man did he have a near perfect golf swing...just beautiful.

[billnelson]

I'm so glad I finally got to see this. As I remember, on that day I was taking my mother-in-law on a tour of the Del Monte Forest and Pebble Beach. That may have been the very last Masters I ever missed.

The only thing I disagreed with was that Mr. Frank Boyle said that Sunday was "the greatest day I think in golf history." In my mind, that would have been Sep. 27, 1930 when Bob Jones won the US Amateur and the Grand Slam.

Thanks, Augusta National, for putting all these wonderful tournaments for us to see, and for being such a great force in golf.

Tom Watson said playing in final round in 75 Masters with Nicklaus that he learned how to close out tournaments by watching Jack. And boy did he winning 8 majors in the next 8 years including his first later that year in the British Open.
