    I believe that with last weeks US Senior Open, Jack now has 21 
    Majors. That includes 2 US amateur's.

1738.3Majors and Luck!!!PEKING::ANTELLJFri Jul 23 1993 11:359
    Jack Nicklaus, his record in Majors will never be beaten he 
    has to be the best golfer ever.
    
    I would have liked to seen Hogan, a lot of Leadbetters teachings are
    based on his book.
    
    Who is the worst golfer to win a Major and who is the luckiest,
    unluckiest is easy Greg Norman !
    He has been robbed more times than a 7-11!!!!!!
