"Jack Grout was my unconditional friend for nearly four decades, serving as both my golf instructor and, after the premature death of my father in 1970, as a second father to me. Jack gave me a great deal of himself to me as my only golf teacher from the day I first attended on of his junior golf classes at Scioto Country Club, right up through my final major championship victory in the 1986 Masters." - Jack Nicklaus"
