Pro golfer Jack Nicklaus is a Columbus icon, having won the most golf major championships in history with 18. He was born in Columbus, Ohio and attended Ohio State University before turning pro in 1961.

In the early 1970’s, Nicklaus founded and helped design Muirfield Village, a golf community located in Dublin, Ohio, which has hosted the annual “Memorial Tournament” since 1976, which has seen winners such as Bryson DeChambeau, and Tiger Woods.

This bronze statue was created in his honor as recognition for his contributions to the Dublin community.
