GREATS OF GOLF May 5, 2018 Annika Sorenstam Jack Nicklaus Gary Player MODERATOR: Welcome, good morning, welcome to 3M Greats of Golf. Jack and Gary, we're thrilled to have you back here in the Woodlands, and you brought a new friend in Annika. Just talk about what you're expecting out there this afternoon. JACK NICKLAUS: Well, she's young and we expect to be able to play her tee shots and her second shots. ANNIKA SORENSTAM: No expectations. No, I'm just thrilled to be here. It's overwhelming to sit here obviously between the greats and just to be part of this event. I'm very, very honored and excited at the same time. I got the call maybe two, three weeks ago and I was like, okay, where are my clubs and where's the driving range, I've got to go practice a little bit. No, this is a dream come true and I look forward to just having a good time. I love listening to the stories. Obviously golf is what we do, but just to share in the stories is what I get excited about. MODERATOR: Y'all flew over here together from Florida. Gary, any strategy on the plane that was discussed? GARY PLAYER: No, but I just think it's wonderful that they've invited a lady pro golfer to play. I think there should be a few more. I've seen a lot of them play the last five years, and I tell you, I've been so impressed. They play so well.

Teescripts.Com GREATS of GOLF INTERVIEW
GREATS OF GOLF INTERVIEW - May 2, 2015 Jack Nicklaus Gary Player Lee Trevino Tom Weiskopf PHIL STAMBAUGH: I thought I would just start off maybe with a comment from each of you about playing in the event again here in Houston. Tom, your first time, just talk about that. Lee, do you want to start? LEE TREVINO: I love this, I absolutely love it because I get to see the guys. We don't get to see each other as much as we used to naturally when we don't play a competition anymore against each other. But it's great to see Tom back. We've been beating the bushes here for a while trying to get him to come out and play. And I think he's enjoying it, I think he's having a great time, and I hope that he's realizing how much fun he's missed over the years. And I don't have to tell you about Jack. Greatest that's ever played. I'm just glad to be paired with him instead of playing against him. And then Gary, Gary doesn't age. I mean, the man is 150 years old and I'm telling you he can still jump over cars. He does all this stuff. But you know what? I was so impressed last week the way he hit that golf ball. I mean, you just don't hit a ball like that at 80 years old. You just don't do it. You know what that is? All that is is that he took good care of himself.

2012Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide
2012Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide HISTORY SECTION PRE - 20th Century “When did the game of golf start?” Golf originated in the 15th century in Scotland. Mary, Queen of Scots introduced the word “caddie” to the game. While playing golf, she was accompanied by a club-carrying young boy whom she called the “cadet”, or “caddie.” Players would hit a pebble around a natural course of sand dunes, rabbit runs and tracks using a stick or primitive club. “How were golf balls developed?” The first real golf ball was known as the “feathery”. The feathery was a leather sack filled by hand with boiled goose feathers, and stitched up and painted. The feathery golf ball period may have started as early as the 1400’s and ended in the early 1850’s. The arrival of the gutta percha ball in 1848 or “guttie”, as it was called, revolutionized the game and allowed golf’s spread to the masses. The guttie was made from rubber, which could be heated, and formulated into a ball. The next revolution in ball design came around 1905 with the patented "Haskell" ball, which is a composite of a solid core wound with thin strips of rubber. Some modern balls (the expensive ones) are made this way today. This ball performed much better than the gutty and could be made cheaply compared to earlier balls. In 1972 the first two-piece ball was introduced by Spalding. These are more popular with amateurs, as they are more durable and considered to be longer and straighter. Many professionals are still devoted to the softer covered balls, since they prefer the added spin for control as opposed to distance.
