Re: Nicklaus: The younger Tour players are 'soft'

Maybe I'm not remembering this exactly correct, but early in his career, didn't Hogan (or maybe it was Byron Nelson) say he pretty much had to win or place in tournaments in order to have the gas, food and lodging money to even go play in the next tournament he wanted to go play in, if it was in another part of the country?
