PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Jack Nicklaus doubts his lead in Grand Slam titles will last, because he anticipates that Tiger Woods’ slump will end.
Woods hasn’t won a tournament since he became immersed in a sex scandal in November 2009, and he’s stalled at 14 major titles, four shy of Nicklaus’ record.
“I still think he’ll break my record,” Nicklaus said Wednesday
Before playing a round Wednesday in the Honda Classic pro-am, Nicklaus said he still thinks his record will be broken by Woods.
Woods isn’t playing Honda. Last week, he was eliminated in the first round of the Match Play Championship, and he has failed to crack the top 20 in his three tournaments this year.
