Some Hallowed Golf Records

10 Most Unbreakable PGA Records

1. Most Major Championship Victories - Jack Nicklaus (18)

In a world where the general philosophy seems to be "championship or bust", Nicklaus is the king. With 18 majors, he leads Tiger Woods by four, and Phil Mickelson by 13. The only players who seem to have a chance, outside of a resurgence by Woods, are Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth who have four and two respectively. While those two are still very young, especially Spieth, Nicklaus' record seems like it won't be touched for years, if ever.
 

6. Most Consecutive Tournaments Without A Missed Cut - Tiger Woods (142)

This is the Dimaggio-hit-record of golf streaks. Woods made the cut in every PGA tournament he entered from February of 1998 to May of 2005. This Herculean effort speaks to the dominance Woods showed over that era and has zero chance of being broken.

How Fabrication Was Done & Is Still Done Today

This Is Why Old Race Cars Rock

The exaggerated aero, the crazy widening, the simply huge rear wheels and tires – this thing could have came out of a manga

You can picture mechanics at Impul building this with cigarettes dangling from their mouths, and maybe a glass of shochu not too far away, you know, for a bit of manly inspiration.

The Cost Of A Bucket List Wish

How much would it cost to follow F1 for a season?


All in all we've got a rough figure of £54,400 (approx $72,000)  for the season. Obviously prices will vary considerably depending on preferences but the conclusion is fairly obvious that you need a big chunk of spare cash to do so.

A Grand Tour, Indeed

Amazon's Grand Tour Has Already Racked Up An $11 Million Profit

Though Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May have morphed into more of entertainers by now, they are still automotive journalists at heart and journalism is not a field to get into when looking to make fistfuls of cash. According to AOL UK, that’s not exactly the case for these three.

It seems that the journalists/entertainers, have managed to rial up the same chemistry that made the BBC’s Top Gear such a smashing success for Amazon’s cameras and attract a hefty audience. By the end of the first season, Amazon managed to pull in £8 million ($11 million) in pretax profit. Once the government got its fair share of the deal, the company took home $8.75 million in profits. One the one hand, that may not sound like a justifiable amount after hearing how much money Amazon invested in the show—take the $250 million invested into the three year contract for 36 episodes as an example or even the grandiose opening scene of the first episode that cost the network $3 million.
