Legendary Alabama Crimson Tide Coach Nick Saban shocked many when he announced his retirement in January. Like millions of Americans each year, he had to figure out what he wanted to do with all his spare time.
Naturally, the 72-year-old wants to play a lot of golf. At The Masters Tournament on Friday, Saban revealed that there are things he has to do before his wife, Miss Terry, allows him to golf for the day.
Nick Saban on if Miss Terry has gotten sick of him in retirement yet:

What are those chores? Very normal things, in fact! He needs to make the bed, take the trash out, and eat a meal with Miss Terry before he’s allowed to go play golf.
While Saban is not a member at Augusta National, he frequently plays the legendary and prestigious course. In 2022, he talked about playing with baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr.
When asked on McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning which club he had the most confidence in, Nick Saban revealed that Ken Griffey Jr can attest to the incorrect answer after Tuesday.
“It ain’t putter, I can promise you that,” said Saban. “I just played Augusta yesterday with Ken Griffey Jr., and he was my partner…”
Cut off by the hosts, who could not believe how quickly Saban moved past Griffey Jr. and their shared tee time at one of the world’s most prestigious golf courses, asked about the relationship between the two.
“I’ve met him a couple times and he has a couple of sons that were prospects,” said Saban. “I got to meet him along the way. But he’s a really good guy and really good golfer, and we had a lot of fun. But I had not – most of the time people complain about three-putts – but when you have multiple four-putts, that’s something you don’t even want to talk about.”
Nick Saban and Ken Griffey Jr. are quite the duo, that’s for sure.
It’s nice to know that even Nick Saban has to live by the adage of “happy wife, happy life”. He truly is one of us.
