Sports Illustrated and Jack Nicklaus

I came upon this purely by accident while googling for a Ben Hogan quote.

Very good article, written by Jack Nickaus, for Sports Illustrated, back in 1975.
He talks about the '74 season, Miller, Crenshaw, Wadkins, Trevino, Palmer, Player, as well as some insight on his own game.

For most dollars, titles and class, 1974 awards go to - 01.06.75 - SI Vault

One a more interesting note, in my opinion:
If you click on the name (highlighted in red), you're taken the that person's "SI Home Page". You see how many SI articles, photos, galleries, videos and covers that person has to their SI credit. You can then drill-down and go to those items and view them.

Check this out: I clicked on the Jack Nicklaus link, then clicked on Articles (883 of them), then went to the last page, sorted by date, to see the first mention of Nicklaus in SI.
These Faces In The Crowd... - 09.02.57 - SI Vault

FACES IN THE CROWD:
Jack Nicklaus , husky 17-year-old homebred, made up two-stroke deficit soon after start of final round but had to hang on grimly in face of determined challenge by John Konsek to win (294-296) international jaycee junior golf title at Columbus.

That's great that they have managed to put all their data online, even data from way before Al Gore hooked us all up with that there InterWeb thingy!
