Golf great Jack Nicklaus has admitted that he feared that World No.1 Tiger Woods could still break his record haul of 18 Majors.
According to the Mirror, the golf legend's haul included five PGA Championships with the final crown at Oak Hill.
Even as the next golf event is set to arrive at the country club in Rochester, New York next month, the American star is still at a distance from an elusive 15th Major, although Nicklaus has refused to write him off and is still expecting him to break his record.
However, Nicklaus said that he does not know when the event will happen, although he said that he believed that Woods is one of the favourites going into Oak Hill, adding that he will play well, control his golf ball properly and manage his game easily.
