DECISIONS MADE HERE MAKE HISTORY
The Ryder Cup represents the best of the game of golf. The Nicklaus-Jacklin Award presented by Aon, represents the best of the Ryder Cup.
Inspired by the historic 1969 ‘Concession’ - when Jack Nicklaus conceded a two-foot putt to Tony Jacklin to halve the match – the award honors two icons of the game and recognizes the player who best represents the spirit of the Ryder Cup – who sees the bigger picture and makes better decisions on and off the course through sportsmanship, teamwork and performance. In 2023, Justin Rose was named the recipient of the award following the 44th Ryder Cup in Rome, Italy. Throughout the competition, Justin demonstrated exceptional character and composure in one of sport’s most intense environments—exemplifying thoughtful decision-making and the values that define the Ryder Cup.
