April 27, 2010 by Joy · Leave a Comment
Now in its eighth year, the Quail Hollow Championship not only feels like a major but it will have an audience to match. Tickets are sold out, the golf course is in spectacular condition and it’s one of the strongest tournament fields in golf this season. Phil Mickelson is scheduled to play for the first time since his Masters victory and Tiger Woods will be playing in his first regular PGA Tour event of 2010.
Dr Morris Pickens is on site this week at Quail Hollow working with four of his top PGA Tour players. Lucas Glover tied for 2nd at this event last year, Jonathan Byrd finished tied for 5th, Zach Johnson led after 3 rounds and Stewart Cink currently sits 25th in world golf rankings.
Good luck to Dr Mo’s players and be sure to sign up for his newsletter to learn his tips taught to the pro’s.
6-time Masters Champion; Jack Nicklaus notices Dr Pickens putting drill
Dr Mo has had a busy Masters week, but so has 6-time Masters Champion, Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus played the Par 3 tournament Wednesday and hit a ceremonial tee shot alongside Arnold Palmer prior to the first round, Thursday morning. Masters Patrons couldn’t help but notice when Jack Nicklaus stepped onto the putting green to warm up. Which just happened to be at the same time Dr Mo was working with 2007 Masters Champion Zach Johnson on some putting drills. What an honor for both Zach and Dr Mo to have Nicklaus pause from his warm up to watch a few putts.
The 1986 Masters tournament was historic victory in which Jack Nicklaus shot a 65 (including a back nine 30) during the final round to become the oldest winner of the Masters.
