TOURNAMENT RECAP: Records were broken at Inverrary Golf and Country Club, in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., as Jack Nicklaus took his second title, and J.C. Snead once again was runner-up. Nicklaus and Snead fought out the final round, both starting the day at 12 under. Snead shot a 68 for a 272 total which broke the four-round course record but Nicklaus ran away with the title closing with a 65 to win by three strokes.
