Huggan: The old boys speak
Plugging a brief gap between traditions here at the Masters, three legends of the game took their places in the interview room on Thursday morning. Having just hit their traditional tee-shots to officially open the 88th playing of golf’s so-called “rite of spring”, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Tom Watson were primed to answer all the usual questions from the assembled journalists.
