CASTLE ROCK, Colo. – In preparation for the PGA Tour’s return to Castle Pines Golf Club after an 18-year absence, Jack Nicklaus returned 10 times and re-did every green and every bunker. When he visited on Wednesday, he told officials of the club that he thought he’d finally gotten it right.
“I love Castle Pines,” Nicklaus said, “It’s a very special place in my heart.”
The course is more than 600 yards longer than when the International was last held here in 2006, stretching to 8,130 yards in the thin, mountain air, but as the old saying goes, these guys are good. On Thursday, Keegan Bradley shot 66, surpassing the previous course record held by Brady Duval, son of David, on May 23. Bradley’s record didn’t even last 24 hours as Adam Scott torched Jack’s handiwork to the tune of 9-under 63.
