Was nice to see him play so well. I honestly thought he was going to miss his last putt on #9 as he had struggled for so many years with
the yips. Lots of good stories coming out of there this week.

Those old guys could putt. Nicklaus drained a couple decent-length putts.

Nicklaus grandson/caddy, GT, hit a hole in one. Tony Finau hit a hole in one and then wrenched his ankle celebrating:

this shoutout could just as easily be for me since I randomly turned this on just in time to see the Finau ace and the grandson ace that followed about 10 minutes later.

The grandson took a massive divot during his practice swing....you could almost see the cringe from Gary Player and Watson.

To birdie six of 9 holes at any age in awesome. It was a treat to watch the Nicklaus, Watson and Player group. Adding G.T. Nicklaus' hole in one was the icing on the cake.

I heard someone put 4 or 5 in the water on one hole... what was the story on that?

Sergio Garcia did on the 15th hole and wound up carding a record tying 13 on the hole. it was a Tin Cup reenactment almost. Just amazing and agonizing at the same time.
