So far in this calendar year, the prospects for impressive fields in early tournaments on the West Coast are equal to or better than they’ve been in the most recent years before the COVID-19 pandemic.
Golf great Jack Nicklaus voiced concerns with the PGA Tour’s new schedule, despite hosting an elite tournament, and is worried recent changes could create two tours within the tour.
Nicklaus first saw the most historic course on the planet in 1964, when he finished runner-up behind the late Tony Lema in what was his third Open appearance. He loved it then and he loves it still.
