Jack is a dick. Made an arse out of himself imo when he made it his personal mission to not allow Casey Martin to ride in a cart while his leg was rotting off.

Martin was just an average golfer, the decision either way was handled by the PGA. Nicklaus should have left it alone.

Bobby Jones

Not the classiest of all time, but Payne Stewart sticks out for me among modern guys.

Jack was well known for his class. He even conceded a Ryder Cup match once the Euro's had already clinched.

The Casey Martin thing was an interesting issue. I think that everyone would allow Casey to ride in a cart, but where do you draw the line? After Casey, some other dude would have tried to ride in a cart cause he had arthritis, or twisted his ankle, or his doctor prescribed him as "big boned".

The NBA didn't give me a special exemption cause I'm only 5'10 and can't jump.

This. It was a VERY courageous move in an attempt to preserve the integrity of a great and ancient game. Sometimes, the game is bigger than the mere mortals who play it.

Watson may be my favorite golfer of all time. And I wasn't born until 87

The Brits/Scots absolutely adored him.... and still do. That collection of British Opens was special...
