Fishing better than Golf Says Jack Nicklaus

World's Greatest Golfers Would Rather Go Fishing

Now many fishos also enjoy a game of golf, but there is no doubt that most of us would put fishing before golf every time, especially watching other people play golf!. Well it turns out we are not alone, evening golfing greats prefer fishing!

After Jack Nicklaus and fellow golfing legend Arnold Palmer (Nicklaus and Palmer have 108 Masters appearances and 10 champions' green jackets between them) ceremonially opened the US Masters yesterday, the man they call The Golden Bear was quoted as saying "I'm not going to sit around and watch a golf tournament," and boasted that he was going to pick up his rods and get on the water.

After telling reporters that there wasn't much for him to do at the Masters, Nicklaus, widly regarded as one of the greatest professional golfers of all time, went on to say "I can go sit in an office .... or go fishing. And that's what I'm going to do."
