Nicklaus says he and wife Barbara stayed at home in Florida from about March 13 until they were “done with it” on April 20.

He says he had a sore throat and a cough, while Barbara had no symptoms of COVID-19.

Both turned 80 earlier this year. Nicklaus says given their age, they were “a couple of the lucky ones.”

Nicklaus says they have tested positive for antibodies.
