At age 86, Jack Nicklaus no longer strolls the fairways with a bounce in his step, but age is not the only specific factor in the Golden Bear's slowdown.
Nicklaus suffers from transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis ATTR-CM), a progressive heart condition most commonly affecting older adults, predominantly men over 60, which can cause an irregular heartbeat and heart muscle problems (cardiomyopathy).
