Nicklaus: Woods must get swinging to beat record

JACK NICKLAUS believes world number one Tiger Woods will find it harder to break his record of 18 majors if he does not compete this year.

Woods, who has 14 majors, has not played since admitting infidelity.

“If Tiger is going to pass my record I think this is a big year – if he doesn’t play obviously the chore will be a little tougher,” said Nicklaus.
