Player talks trash to Jack about Masters tee shot

There's not many people in this world with enough cachet to talk trash to Jack Nicklaus. But Gary Player is one of those guys.

Less than two weeks away from hitting the ceremonial opening tee shot at the Masters, Player took to Twitter on Thursday to take a little shot at his buddy who has 18 majors under his belt.

Of course, that guy, who is generally regarded as the greatest golfer of all time, beat his age by six shots just a week ago.
