About this episode
Bobby Nichols, winner of the 1964 PGA Championship, looks back on his later Tour wins and that fateful day in 1975 when lightning struck at the Western Open. Bobby recounts his close calls in the majors and his regret at not playing the British Open. He recalls his 1967 Ryder Cup experience with Captain Ben Hogan when Arnold Palmer was benched on the first day, presumably because he "buzzed" the golf course with his private jet during a practice round. After a brief look at his Senior Tour Career Bobby reflects back on his charitable endeavors supporting disadvantaged youth in SW Florida. Bobby Nichols concludes his life story, "FORE the Good of the Game." Give Bruce & Mike some feedback via Text.
