1986 Masters

In 1986 Jack Nicklaus was 46 and in the sunset of his fabulous career. Nicklaus was six years removed from his last major championship and had won just twice since 1980. So when the Masters got underway at Augusta National, he wasn't given much of a chance, least of all by Atlanta Constitution golf writer Tom McCollister. But when Nicklaus read what McCollister wrote his blood boiled and his competitive hackles rose. What happened in the final round is one of golf's most glorious and improbable legends.
