At his age (29 at the time) he said that his dad already had won about 6 majors. He was trying to see if he could compete on a pro level. So I got the unusual opportunity to play 9 holes with Jackie that afternoon. The following day he went out, shot 83, and went home. Tough name to carry on your shoulders, but his brother Gary did have some minor success on the pro tour.
