Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus share special moment at Memorial: ‘I’m really proud of you’

Tiger Woods is back playing in a golf tournament this week, and it’s one that he’s had a lot of success at.

This year’s Memorial, an event that Tiger has won five times, is even more special, however, because it’s the first time he and Jack Nicklaus, who’s the host of the tournament on a course that he built, have seen each other since Tiger won the Masters back in April.

Nicklaus spoke that Sunday about how he was worried again about Tiger breaking his record for most major titles in a career.

But on Wednesday, the two legendary golfers weren’t concerned about records. Instead, it was just nice to catch up and it allowed Nicklaus to shower Tiger with praise:

Nicklaus’ wife, Barbara, also told Tiger how Jack skipped fishing to watch his final round of the Masters:

Now that is all cool to see.

It would also be cool to see Tiger in contention again this weekend in Ohio.
