Hard to believe how much Jack was despised when he first came out on tour. A chubby young guy who started to beat Arnold Palmer right off the bat. But he hung in there, always gracious and eventually turned it all around.

His 147 total, 3 over par, was two shy of making the cut. All things considered that was a pretty good score. He beat a lot of younger, stronger, and more flexible guys in the field.

I just heard that Jack's grandchild died in a freak hottub accident. Do you know when that happened?

I was reminded of the scene in The Genius of Bobby Fisher where a long since retired Bobby returns to the course during a trip to Europe. The town shuts down and all of the citizens go to the course to walk with him as he played. Not just because the man was an amazing player, but because of the respect the have for him and his accomplishments.
