Jack Nicklaus makes a disturbing confession about his golf

The most successful major champion of all time, Jack Nicklaus, has made a heartbreaking confession about his golf game after saying he “no longer enjoys” playing on the golf course.

Nicklaus is considered to be the greatest player of all time, perhaps alongside Tiger Woods, with a record 18 major titles and a total of 117 professional tournament wins. But today, at 83 years old, it seems the golf great no longer has love for the sport he dominated for so many years.

According to the Palm Beach Post, the “Golden Bear” said he “wants to go back and play. I play worse than it is not fun. And my golf ball is over. \ He added, “People always want to play my way,” he added. \ “Well, I can do it now. The truth is, I don’t want to play like that.’

Nicklaus was speaking at the Integra Connect Golf Classic clinic to raise money for Conquer Cancer at PGA National with European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald, Ernie Els and Annika Sorenstam. The four golfing stars were giving on-course advice at the Palm Beach course, but Nicklaus decided to leave it to Donald, Els and Sorenstam. Nicklaus’ final golf shot was revealed to be when he hit a ceremonial drive alongside Gary Player at the 2023 Masters. Nicklaus was a constant presence on the golf course throughout his later years, playing competitive professional golf, and played on the Champions Tour until age 65, his final tournament being in 2005. American players continued to play, especially at Augusta, for several years afterward.

Jack Nicklaus has made a heartbreaking admission about his golf game, after the most succesful major champion of all time claimed playing on the golf course is “no longer fun”.

Nicklaus is regarded as arguably the greatest player of all time alongside Tiger Woods, having won a record 18 major titles and 117 professional tournaments overall. Now at the age of 83 though, the golfing great appears to have fallen out of love with the sport he dominated for so many years.

Per the Palm Beach Post, ‘Golden Bear’ said: “I would like to go play again. I play so poorly anymore it’s just really not any fun. And I run out of golf balls.

“People always say they want to play how I do,” he added. “Well, now they can. In fact, I don’t think want to play like I do.”

Nicklaus was speaking at Integra Connect Golf Classic Clinic to raise money for Conquer Cancer at PGA National alongside European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald, as well as Ernie Els and Annika Sorenstam. All four golf stars were giving advice on the range at the Palm Beach course, but Nicklaus opted to leave the hitting to Donald, Els and Sorenstam.

It was revealed the Nicklaus’ last golf shot came way back in April, when he hit the ceremonial drive alongside Gary Player at the 2023 Masters. Throughout his later years, Nicklaus has still been an ever-present on the golf course and played competitive professional golf on the Champions Tour up until the age of 65, playing his last ever event in 2005. In the years after the American has continued to play, especially at Augusta.
