Nicklaus May Skip British Open If Health Worsens
Jack Nicklaus, 53, weighs skipping this year’s British Open if his form at the Memorial Tournament stays uneven. He has played the Open since turning pro in 1962, winning three times, but double and triple missed cuts in recent years raise the possibility. Nicklaus cites travel, cold weather, and reduced enjoyment as factors, though he plans to play Oakmont if able. Palmer is this year’s Memorial honoree, and autograph restrictions are in effect at Muirfield Village.
