Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Tom Watson all picked Rory McIlroy to get his green jacket this week. "I think it's about time that Rory won and I sat down with him last week," Nicklaus said. "I said ‘I know you prepared for Augusta, tell me how you're going to play the golf course.' "We went through it shot for shot, we got done with the round, I didn't open my mouth and I said ‘I wouldn't change a thing'. That's exactly the way I would try to play the golf course.
