Jack Scores A Gold Medal; Just Not The One He Wanted
/An unbylined AP story on Jack Nicklaus receiving the Congressional Gold Medal that is "awarded to prominent military leaders, public servants, athletes and artists. It was last given in 2010 to Japanese-American World War II veterans." It's not the Rio design job, but still a nice honor for the golfing great.
Rep. Joe Baca, D-Calif., sponsored the bill that now heads to the Senate where undoubtedly someone will filibuster it until Jack promises to autograph thirty Masters flags.
