1965 Masters

April 11, 1965 – Augusta National Golf Club, Augusta, Ga,

The most legendary, lopsided top-three finish in Masters history saw Nicklaus defeat Arnold Palmer and Gary Player by nine shots. The three were tied after 36 holes in what might have been the golf’s most memorable finish of all time had Nicklaus not torn up Augusta National with a 64 on Saturday. His 17-under, 271 tournament record stood until Tiger Woods broke it with a 270 in 1997.
