Considered by many to be the greatest champion in the game's history, Jack Nicklaus, known to many as the Golden Bear, won seven USGA championships, including four U.S. Opens, which ties him with Bob Jones, Ben Hogan and Willie Anderson. Nicklaus' third Open triumph came at Pebble Beach (Calif.) Golf Links, the same layout where he captured the 1961 U.S. Amateur. A native of Columbus, Ohio, Nicklaus won five consecutive Ohio Junior titles from the age of 12. He never won the U.S. Junior Amateur, but served notice of his greatness when he bested defending champion Charlie Coe in the 1959 U.S. Amateur final. He won the same title in 1961 before turning pro and winning the 1962 U.S. Open in a playoff over Arnold Palmer at Oakmont (Pa.) Country Club for his first title as a professional. He finished his Hall-of-Fame career with a record 18 major victories.
Available in three sizes, matted or with two custom framing options.
- Printed on museum quality digital archival print stock.
We have chosen the finest quality 100% cotton fine art papers for the
best reproduction as well as for their resistance to fading and
superior archival performance. We are proud to use the latest
generation of pigmented inks to assure the ultimate standard for
quality archival papers.
- The prints are then enclosed
in wood frames (Larson-Juhl "Tribeca" Black or "Ansley" Cherry-Brown)
using both acid free mats and foam core backing materials that will
extend the life of the finished product. The last part of the finishing
equation includes UV filtering Plexiglas.
- The image is
printed as large as possible, while maintaining the original image
proportions on the paper size that you select. The image is then matted
so that the image is presented with a two-to-three inch border on all
sides of the image area. Please see “More Images” (above) for details.
