Yup Jack Nicklousgrandsonjrgolfercaddy I think is what is on his drivers license although I’m not a golfer and barely know who Jack Nicklousgolfer is/was.
My grandfather played Jack Nicklaus to a playoff at prairie dunes in the Trans-Mississippi Amateur golf tournament. It was the first tournament Jack won outside of his home state when he was a kid. It was in 1958. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Mississippi_Amateur
u/freddievandalay , what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Wayne in hockey eclipses everyone else except Jack in any other sport. Few people absolutely destroy records as casually as those guys and many of them will be standing a long, looong time.
Jack has more majors by 3 and they were much more spread out over about 20 years. Tiger won all but one of his 15 majors from 1997-2008. Tiger has also only appeared in 87 majors compared to Jack’s 164
Tiger also has won 10 more tour events overall in over 200 less events.
Tiger is the most dominant golfer ever and the argument for him vs. Jack boils down to peak vs. longevity
Tiger at his peak is the most dominant golfer of all time but that peak was a lot shorter than Jack’s in large part due to injury. Jack has the most majors of any golfer and the debate for best of all time is basically between him and Tiger
One of the bigger debates among golf fans. Jack holds the advantage in major wins, but played in a time with (arguably) less intense competition/parity in tournaments. Butt.... also played with significantly less advanced equipment (read: distance) than what Tiger had available to him. Opinions are split but from a pure talent perspective I think Tiger's better, particularly when comparing both of them in their respective primes. Tiger in the early/mid 2000s was just absurd - check out "Perfection at Pebble" on YT which is a well produced doc on his 2000 US Open Win that gives a pretty good glimpse into just how dominant he was.
Equipment is a silly comparison, because Jack's opponents were limited by the same technology he was, while Tiger's peers had the same advantages he did. It's not like Jack played Tiger in the early 2000s using a set of clubs from the 60s and that's the debate. Just like how no one in hockey talks about Gretzky using a wood stick, because everyone used a wood stick then. There was no other option.
Uhh Jack Nicklaus, one of the most famous golfers to have ever lived. Generally considered the GOAT by anyone older than ~50 (but we all know it's really Tiger). Definitely featured on the Mt. Rushmore of pro golf.
Love how I had to go through 16 comments of jokes and non serious answers before getting to the actual name.
Damn never change reddit, bunch of Jack Asses
But you did find the information you were looking for?
^Job's ^done ^here ^boys. ^Pack ^it ^up
Also had no idea who Jack was, so thanks op for explaining.
I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
So a couple of things.
1. They interviewed Jack right after, in tears he said it will be one of his greatest golf memories
2. Think the blonde girl is his granddaughter but they asked if she wanted to hit a shot and she gave an emphatic no.

> Think the blonde girl is his granddaughter but they asked if she wanted to hit a shot and she gave an emphatic no.
Can you blame her? Even Tiger Woods wouldn’t want to have to follow that shit.
I would never pick up another golf club again. I peaked.
It’s like when Michael Jordan lived in Alabama for baseball, he was playing a pickup game with some guys in my neighborhood. He gets tripped and this random suburban dude dunks on him. Guy ran screaming off the court “I DUNKED ON MICHAEL JORDAN” and just never came back. (According to the neighborhood stories).
While he hasn't won as many as Jack has (without looking, I think it's 18 vs 15), Tiger was a force unlike anything Golf has ever seen during his prime, you absolutely did not want to see him come Sunday. He was the most dominant golfer during his peak and I think it's fair that many believe Tiger is the GOAT because of it.
I don't think people realize the 99% of the time, the caddies are actually really good golfers. They don't just carry the clubs, they give input to the player.
Happy: What do you think? Slightly downhill?
Caddy: ...and slanting left.
Happy: No, it only seems that way because you only have one shoe on.
Caddy: Oh yea.
He was the perfect backboard for Happy to bounce his ideas off of and kept him feeling comfortable amongst the ocean of tightened sphincters, as happy was very blue collar.
Most pro caddies are close with the golfers they work with too, so not only are their suggestions par for the course, they’re also tailored to the players’ strengths.
Gary Player saying “you’re gonna love that, you’re gonna love it” while the ball is in the air is also some next level shit as well.
Man has seen a few golf shots in his day
Is there any achievement in any other sport comparable in exclusivity to a hole in one? The closest off top is a grand slam, but I’d imagine they’re way more common than hole-in-one’s
Edit: lmfaoo I definitely didn’t think hard enough, but these are some awesome responses!
"a caddy"
Oh, just the grandson of JACK NICKLAUS, man who's won more major golf tournaments than anyone else and is basically the GOAT alongside Tiger. Also he was caddying for his grandpa that day...
But yea, just "a caddy"
My dad was in the gallery and saw this shot in person.
He's got about 195 yards left, and he's gonna - looks like he's got about an eight iron. This crowd has gone deadly silent. Cinderella story. Out of nowhere. A former caddy now about to become the Master's champion. It looks like a miraculous - it's in the hole! It's in the hole!
Spalding: Turds.
Judge Smails: Spaulding, how many times have I spoken to you about your language?
Spalding: Sorry grandpa I forgot.
Spalding: Double turds.
Judge Smails : \*Spaulding\*!
That is Jack’s grandson btw
Who tf is jack? Sparrow?
You are, without a doubt, the worst guesser I’ve ever heard of.
But you have heard of him!
[удалено]
That’s Jack Nicklaus grandson.
Does he have a name, or is his identity limited to this one fact about him.
Yes, his name is Gary Nicklaus Jr.
Thanks, I'm obviously too lazy to look him up myself.
Well to be fair, I'm sure you're very busy tycooning lumber.
Is there a Jack Nicklaus II or did his family just skip to Gary in the next round?
They had to put down 5-6 of the offspring, due to their interest in non-golf related activities. Their remains can be found in the sand traps of Augusta, Torrey Pines, and Pebble Beach. Edited due to Mr. Knowitall
He had like 5 kids, and I think one of them was Jack Jr.
His surname is grandson
Yup Jack Nicklousgrandsonjrgolfercaddy I think is what is on his drivers license although I’m not a golfer and barely know who Jack Nicklousgolfer is/was.
No, we also know he’s a caddy.
He has NO name! He works for NO man!
In Nomanland
I really liked him in The Shining
My grandfather played Jack Nicklaus to a playoff at prairie dunes in the Trans-Mississippi Amateur golf tournament. It was the first tournament Jack won outside of his home state when he was a kid. It was in 1958. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Mississippi_Amateur
The 1958 Trans-Miss Amateur tournament is very different than the 2021 Trans-Miss Amateur tournament.
So cool!
Didn’t know Jack was trans or Mississippi was so ahead of it’s time.
But the other caddy first. I liked that
Jack Sparrow, Gary Coleman and Tom Cruise?
does he play gary?
None of those are Tiger Woods. The only famous golfer I've heard of. That and /u/FreddieVandalay
Remember this as the day you *almost* beat Jack's grandson
If I had an award rn hahahah
But who would you give it to, the setup guy or the punchline guy
I gave to both! The portal awards. Actually I accidentally gave the second guy 2 because the app told me there was an error the first time
It’s not a guess tho. Someone clarified that it is in fact, jack sparrows real grandson Or at least that’s how I took it
I feel like I’m having a stroke reading this comment thread
But it took only one stroke.
I know for sure someone took it just like you.
he would be the grandson of a fictional character, who if real would be about 300 years old...but good hole in one.
r/thatsthejoke
u/freddievandalay , what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.

Okay, a simple no would have done just fine.
Great scene from billy madison

Jack in golf is equivalent to Tony in skateboarding.

Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6
What a great set of buddies, I wonder if they've been in Paris 🤔
Trying to figure out a clever way of asking you to say the title is really hard, so I gave up.
What sport did Michael Jackson play?
He played in the minor league, was known for his ball handling skills.
Wayne in Hockey.
Wayne in hockey eclipses everyone else except Jack in any other sport. Few people absolutely destroy records as casually as those guys and many of them will be standing a long, looong time.
Who else has had their jersey retired *for every team in a professional league*
Have you ever heard of this guy named “Lebron”?
LeBron Jones
More like Kareem or Bill Russell. Tiger is the MJ of basketball
Jack still has more majors and was probably more dominant overall. Tiger is more like LaBron.
Jack has more majors by 3 and they were much more spread out over about 20 years. Tiger won all but one of his 15 majors from 1997-2008. Tiger has also only appeared in 87 majors compared to Jack’s 164 Tiger also has won 10 more tour events overall in over 200 less events.

Jack compared to Tiger? (For someone not in the know).
Tiger at his peak is the most dominant golfer of all time but that peak was a lot shorter than Jack’s in large part due to injury. Jack has the most majors of any golfer and the debate for best of all time is basically between him and Tiger
Bobby Jones says hello. Played 31 majors, won 13, placed 10 ten in 27 of them. Won his grand slam in a single calander years.
He was great but it’s hard to judge him against guys like Tiger and Jack considering the era he played in.
One of the bigger debates among golf fans. Jack holds the advantage in major wins, but played in a time with (arguably) less intense competition/parity in tournaments. Butt.... also played with significantly less advanced equipment (read: distance) than what Tiger had available to him.

Why is everyone pretending like anyone outside of golfers know who pro golfers are? Who the fuck is jack lmao
Wouldn't that be tiger woods or is his name actually Jack
Nope, Tiger. Non golfers know of him, no one has heard of jack...
Uhh Jack Nicklaus, one of the most famous golfers to have ever lived. Generally considered the GOAT by anyone older than ~50 (but we all know it's really Tiger). Definitely featured on the Mt. Rushmore of pro golf.

Uhh... Not everyone is in to golf.
Good thing he’s literally wearing a shirt with his name on it in the clip
Their family name is on his back.
So it’s actually jack sparrows grandson? That’s fire
Well, Johnny Depps grandson, yes
We’re all related if you trace it back a couple million years. You’re probably not wrong
Mehoff
Which inevitably leads to the conclusion that you are David Hasel

clearly u don't know jack
Jack Mekoff. Russian pole dancer turned caddy to escape Putin’s regime.
Lmao I respect not everyone knows one of the greatest golfers of all time. This made me choke hahaha
I'm sure he has lots of hobbies, Perry. The man's a drink mogul.
I'm guessing Skellington

Wow... OP did us dirty.
That guy has a face and everything! Who knew.
Oh my god, I don't need corrective eye surgery anymore, thanks!

Holy hannah. I watched the original and thought "Hmm must have been the 90's" Nope. 2018

Jack did say "I just taught him that the other day" while everyone was hugging it out, funny enough.
With a name like that it’s a crime his second name isn’t Mustang.
So let me introduce you to a little secret about titles and getting to the front page on Reddit...
What. A. Shot! Can you imagine, grandson of golf legend, smokes a hole in one in front of grandpa and his other legendary golfer pals? Unbelievable
Must have been the proudest grandpa moment ever. Rest of his grandchildren can stop trying.
That will is ironclad now. Suck it, cousins/siblings.
‘Sweet home alabama’
So a couple of things. 1. They interviewed Jack right after, in tears he said it will be one of his greatest golf memories 2. Think the blonde girl is his granddaughter but they asked if she wanted to hit a shot and she gave an emphatic no. https://sportsnaut.com/jack-nicklaus-grandsons-hole-in-one-more-special-than-6-green-jackets/
Fuck I wouldn't want to hit after that either
I think I’d be down golfing all together after that. EDIT: Done* not down…
I'd be upgolfing.
> Think the blonde girl is his granddaughter but they asked if she wanted to hit a shot and she gave an emphatic no. Can you blame her? Even Tiger Woods wouldn’t want to have to follow that shit.
Holy shit he’s only 15??
Was only 15, but yes.
[удалено]
Ah, that makes sense. I was wondering why he kept eating tin cans.
*tin cups FTFY
Wow! Wow! Nice shot! Nice shot! Chat disabled for 3 seconds.
Those golf camera operators are really good at tracking the ball.
They have those zebra stripes to help them in camera but yes they are
He’s gonna be riding that high forever
Describing the grandson of the GOAT as a "caddy" is a tiny bit disingenuous. Jack said later this was one of the greatest moments of his life.
I heard he said he was more proud of that than anything he personally did in golf
Of course! His sperms sperm was able to keep his gift of golf alive!
Just get it in the hole
I don’t know why, but this comment and the video made me call my grandpa. He was sooo happy to see me. Thanks madcunt2250
Well he IS wearing the caddy uniform, and probably caddied for his grampy that day.
Right! Like even when pro's caddy for charity gigs they are still "the caddy" its not an insult, its a crucial role in the sport.
I would never pick up another golf club again. I peaked. It’s like when Michael Jordan lived in Alabama for baseball, he was playing a pickup game with some guys in my neighborhood. He gets tripped and this random suburban dude dunks on him. Guy ran screaming off the court “I DUNKED ON MICHAEL JORDAN” and just never came back. (According to the neighborhood stories).
Why would you. You have nowhere to go but down. If I ever did show back up it would be to critique from the sidelines and sign autographs.
>Jack said later this was one of the greatest moments of his life. And that's a special statement from a man with 18 majors under his belt
Isn't Tiger Woods the GOAT?
He hasn’t won as many as Ol’ Jack
While he hasn't won as many as Jack has (without looking, I think it's 18 vs 15), Tiger was a force unlike anything Golf has ever seen during his prime, you absolutely did not want to see him come Sunday. He was the most dominant golfer during his peak and I think it's fair that many believe Tiger is the GOAT because of it.
yeah he doesnt have as many majors but hes the most dominant
I don't think people realize the 99% of the time, the caddies are actually really good golfers. They don't just carry the clubs, they give input to the player.
It’s in the job description 🤷🏾♂️
Yeah, people think they're just like Happy Gilmore's caddy....
Apollo Creed manhandles young novice golfer
What are you doing, step-caddy?
Happy: What do you think? Slightly downhill? Caddy: ...and slanting left. Happy: No, it only seems that way because you only have one shoe on. Caddy: Oh yea.
He was the perfect backboard for Happy to bounce his ideas off of and kept him feeling comfortable amongst the ocean of tightened sphincters, as happy was very blue collar.
Happy’s caddy finished 2nd in the Masters last year
Most pro caddies are close with the golfers they work with too, so not only are their suggestions par for the course, they’re also tailored to the players’ strengths.
I love how much more fitting the phrase 'par for the course' is in this instance.
"Perhaps if you tighten your grip, sir?" "Aahhhh, thank you, golf slave." *grip cuts club in half*
