AUGUSTA, Ga. — Jack Nicklaus, the all-time leader with 18 major golf titles, seems to have a major blind spot: Donald Trump.
Nicklaus was a staunch supporter of Trump both in his successful presidential run in 2016 and in his failed campaign in 2020 — an election in which Nicklaus encouraged folks to vote for Trump on Twitter and whose results Trump continues to reject, even as he prepares to run again in 2024.
Trump’s 2016 campaign resulted in an indictment last week in New York for felony bookkeeping fraud in relation to paying hush money to an adult actress, and, as the nation looked on, Trump on Tuesday became the first American president to be arraigned.
