Jack Nicklaus teaches US Ryder Cup team some home truths

The USA’s bid for Ryder Cup glory steps up a notch with a gathering of the top contenders for the team at the Florida home of Jack Nicklaus later this month.

Nicklaus played in six Ryder Cups (1969-1981) and was a winning captain in 1983, but lost out to Tony Jacklin’s side four years later when Eamonn Darcy won his singles encounter at Muirfield Village to seal success for Europe in 1987.

Now it seems that the golfing legend is doing his part for the next generation of US stars under the captaincy of Davis Love III, at his Palm Beach Gardens residence.
