Whats in the Bag
WITB Time Machine: Greg Norman 1986 Masters
Greg Norman’s first of three runner-up finishes at Augusta National came in 1986, where a bogey on his final hole ensured Jack Nicklaus would don the green jacket once again. A wild 4-iron approach on the 72nd hole proved fatal for the Australian, who later admitted that the club selection cost him the event.

I know he had a MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Muirfield PW in the bag at the Dunhill Cup in 1986.

It would be fun to watch a foursome of top pros play a match using clubs from fifty years ago.
