After a Saturday morning tennis match at his home in south Florida, 69-year-old Jack Nicklaus watched Tom Watson, with whom he had a memorable duel at Turnberry in 1977, play the last nine holes and take a one-shot lead at the British Open. “Like everybody else, I had some tears in my eyes,” Nicklaus said. The Golden Bear also said he sent Watson a text message, although he needed some help from his wife. “Barbara sent to Tom my very first text, ever,” Nicklaus said. “Barbara has been texting him all week, but that was my first.” As for the message? “That is just something between the two of us,” Nicklaus said. “He’ll have to tell you.” The Associated Press
