Jack Nicklaus-branded clothing features the iconic Golden Bear logo. Nicklaus adopted the Golden Bear nickname early in his professional career—a record-setting career launched 50 years ago this year and one considered today to be the benchmark for greatness—and was inspired in part by Australian sportswriter Don Lawrence of the Melbourne Age. Lawrence was asked by IMG Founder Mark McCormack what he thought of the young star and the writer responded by saying Nicklaus looked like a “big, cuddly, golden bear.” Nicklaus had attended Upper Arlington High School in his native Ohio, and the school’s mascot was the Golden Bears. The combination inspired Nicklaus to adopt the moniker and thus was born one of the most recognized nicknames and logos in sports history.
