Next on the Tee with Chris Mascaro - PGA Tour Legend Bobby Nichols

Oct 18, 2014, 01:00 PM

Joining me this week is PGA Tour Legend Bobby Nichols. Mr Nichols won the 1964 PGA Championship among his 15 Professional victories. He also finished 2nd in the 1967 Masters and 3rd in the 1962 US Open which was won by Jack Nicklaus in a playoff over Arnold Palmer. It was Jack's first professional win. You may also recall that he and Lee Trevino were struck by lightning at the Western Open in 1975.

This year he was recognized as a Hometown Hero by his home city of Louisville which took place in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of his PGA Championship victory and the event being held this year at Valhalla Country Club located in Louisville. 

Mr. Nichols is a wonderful man and we hope you enjoy the show.

Join Chris Mascaro every Saturday morning as he talks with PGA & LPGA Tour pros, legends, equipment manufacturers, members of the media and those influencing the great game of golf on Next on the Tee.
