Fifty years of the Memorial Tournament sounds like a sports anniversary, but the real story is what happens when a golf event is built to serve communities.  Lindsay and Bruce are joined by the greatest to ever pick up a golf club — Jack Nicklaus.  They talk about how Muirfield Village and the Memorial helped put Dublin, Ohio on the map, why the City relationship has lasted for decades, and what “give first” truly looks like.

Jack also shares the most personal reason behind the tournament’s charitable legacy: a frightening moment when his daughter Nan was a baby and Nationwide Children’s Hospital saved her life. That experience shaped a lifelong commitment to children’s health, from the Memorial’s fundraising impact in central Ohio to the growth of Nicklaus Children’s Hospital and clinics across South Florida. 

Then, Bruce and Lindsay lighten it up with rapid fire: Jack's walk-up song, the pressure putt that taught him to believe in himself, favorite milkshake flavor, and a behind the scenes Happy Gilmore cameo with an ad lib that made the final cut.

From golf history to philanthropy and leadership, this conversation delivers with Jack's signature wisdom, wit and vision for a better world. Subscribe for more, share this with a golf fan, and leave us a review with your biggest takeaway.
