Jack Nicklaus said Tiger Woods can still beat his record of 18 major championships -- provided he can stay in control of his mental game.
Nicklaus said Woods can achieve the feat "if he gets the five inches between his ears squared out."
"I mean Tiger has a great work ethic, he's a great competitor, the most talented kid on the planet right now," Nicklaus told The Associated Press in an interview Friday. "He's not going to go away."
The 35-year-old Woods has 14 major titles, but has not won any tournament since revelations of infidelities in 2009 led to the collapse of his marriage and a break from the sport. This season has been partly derailed by injuries, but Nicklaus also praised the decision by U.S. captain Fred Couples to include Woods in the 12-member Presidents Cup team that will take on non-European players in Australia in November.
