Nicklaus sees Woods still breaking record, had 40 majors to win 5

Jack Nicklaus still believes in Tiger Woods. 

The 18-time major champion believes Woods, who has 14 majors to his credit, can still win another handful of majors and become the sport’s all-time greatest major champion. In an interview with ESPN reporter Darren Rovell at his alma mater Ohio State University, Nicklaus said Tiger will have to win one-eighth of the majors he has left to get to the sought 19 major mark.


Not too many people are making that argument these days, but, for Nicklaus, there’s not much motivation to change his tune. The day Nicklaus publicly acknowledges Woods’ window has closed is one of the most seminal in Woods’ chase.
