  6. I had Jack Nicklaus in my golf legends death pool, but I am using my death pool mulligan and switching up to Johnny Miller. Boy he has deteriorated. I heard he was having an affair with Rory McIlroy's wife, so maybe he is losing it. Dustin Johnson had an affair with with Jack's wife Barbara. Rest in Peace in advance to these two country clubbers. Sad! Sick Sick Sick!

  8. Johnny did his NBC telecasts in his bare feet, and was shooting Easy Cheese (Cheeze Wiz alternative) into his mouth on the broadcasts. It was the grossest thing I have ever seen. He will be the first to die from OD'ing on Easy Cheese. Gross, disgusting, sick! I heard he puts it in his wife's boomhowl and licks it out. Sick old prevert!

  9. Love hearing from the GOAT Jack Nicklaus & from Jonny Miller. Amazing words of wisdom from both. I think they both faced adversity in their game. It is how they handled themselves that set them apart & put them on top. They were humble. They did not play 2 break records. They played because they wanted 2 prove something 2 their families, 2 provide 4 their families & kids, & 4 a higher cause. Love them both.

  10. In relation to the 'ridiculous' prize money they now play for and equating that with Johnny Miller's stated top tier winners cheque of $30000.00; based on inflation of say rent which for me since 1973 has increased 265 times, that means the first place prize money should be about $8,000,000.

  15. Johnny Miller was in fact the most insightful tv broadcaster in golf history. A lot of people didnt like him bc he said what he felt. I miss Johnny Miller the player and broadcaster.

  26. Writing as I’m watching. Two real stupid press questions: NIL has almost no effect on professional golf. College golfers probably make a pittance compared to basketball, football. The question on Arnold Palmer’s impact on the game. Are you kidding? You have to ask that given the history of golf and Arnold’s tremendous impact on the sport? Palmer reshaped the world of professional golf. Stupid press questions aren’t limited to politics.

  27. Social media has ruined everything. Nothing but low class mentalities and disrespectful people everywhere. Money definitely corrupts. Jack and Johnny played in an era that was full of class.

  28. That 1962 Open marked the beginning of the spread of the vast interest in golf in the United States. I was 11 at the time, and I recall that people who had never given golf much thought were becoming aware of it for the first time. Arnie was seen as the overwhelming favorite, and Jack, only 22 and 10 years younger, was sort of the villain. It was the beginning of "Arnie's Army." With that rivalry and the advent of TV, golf started to boom. I loved hearing Johnny talk about hitting the ball in the fairway, which, I remember, is what Jack Grout, who was Jack's teacher from the time he was 10 years old at Scioto CC, said was the key to winning golf. He told the big hitters to get the right equipment, including stiffer shafts on long clubs to hit it straight, and forget trying to get more distance. Johnny discussed Jack's focus, believing in himself, and handling pressure. Look up "Duel In The Sun" on YouTube. Enough said.

  29. I think patience is mentioned by all top golfers so many times…there must be something to it! Quite a bit of the reason for many victories or high finishes is just playing basic/solid/patient golf while most of the field is making mistakes and dropping down the leaderboard.

  30. I love listening to both of these guys, it's great to see Johnny again. But I could listen to Jack Nicklaus all day long.

  31. Both great golfers. I saw Miller hit balls in Phoenix many years ago. He was so perfectly accurate. His caddy was standing 280 yards away, and Miller was hitting demonstration shots. His caddy never even moved. He just caught the balls with a towel, on the first bounce, and dropped them in the shag bag. It was incredible.

  34. I watched Jack Nicklaus hit gold balls at Firestone many many years ago. It was truly amazing. He hit the ball so far, and so high. It was unlike anyone else. Amazing.

  37. From the 12 minute mark to the 15 minute mark is essentially what you need to know to have an effective and repeatable swing. Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, Johnny Miller and Scottie Sheffler is all the proof you need. Forget the computer and software pretenders and charlatans who know essentially nothing about playing golf.

  40. If heard some chatter about Johnny after this press conference..like "is he okay" "does he have dementia or something?" I think it's more this:

    Age-related changes: At 78, it's totally normal to have occasional slower speech or less fluid verbal expression.

    Retirement adjustment: He stepped away from broadcasting in 2019. It's common for retirees to shift in how they speak or present, reflecting less “on-air” polish. He's simply not used to speaking quickly and getting everything out in a more concise manner.

    Press conference setting: The dynamic, unpredictable environment — interacting live with Jack Nicklaus and media — could affect anyone’s clarity, especially later in life.

    Jack, at 85, kinda seemed sharper to me but people age differently and again I think Johnny is a little more shy and reserved than he lets on. Some of the most socially anxiety ridden people (I'm one of them) can appear very much comfortable thus leading people close to me to question or chuckle at my reveal of anxiety…but it's been proven to be the case. We learn to sort of perform for streaks of time and appear just fine (but inside we are burning up our mental fuel pretty fast).. it can be EXHAUSTING…It's almost at times as if we are perfoming as best we can so that people will walk away satisfied and without second glance. It's like we're trying to wrap things up instead of being present and carrying on without a finish line in sight or without worry of when or how that finish line will reveal itself. This is deep psychological stuff here so im sorry if i lost some folks but it's that I've always known about Johnny and his social anxiety because I have it too and I'm a life time golfer. Bless his heart. He's a good man…he appears cocky to some and sometimes he even seems it but he trips over himself accidentally and if you watch him closely he rehases what just took place and analyizes it over and over. He cares. He's good at blending like I am and most anxiety ridden people. It's a crutch but it also helps us in other ways. We are INCREDIBLY observant folks….and Johnny's broadcasting showcased that talent. Sorry for ranting…we either are quiet or we explain things down to the last tiny o-ring. just gave you the o-ring version here. Those of you not interested, hope you skipped over me. God bless everyone. Good day.

  41. So amazing the specific memories these men have of every round of golf they played. A beautiful history of golf. This is awesome!

  43. This is a very special sit down with two of the absolute greats, so inspirational when I was a kid; a gift to listen to them today !
