  • Nick Price - Part 3 (The Major Championships)
    2024/08/14

    Three-time major championship winner, Nick Price, begins by taking us back to the early frustrations and heartbreaks at the majors including the challenges of Augusta and tough Open Championship losses to Seve at Lytham in 1988 and earlier having one hand on the Claret Jug in 1982 at Troon when Tom Watson prevailed.

Nick Price looks back on a Hall of Fame career and finishes with his thoughts on how he would like to be remembered as a golfer, "FORE the Good of the Game."
