[edit] Nationality

Is there any evidence that he was a Greek citizen, as opposed to a Greek American who had been taken to America as a boy? Golf is hardly played in Greece even now (it has just six courses according to the European Golf Association's site) so it seems pretty unlikely that Nicklaus went there to find a caddy decades ago.

Looking at the Hellenic Golf Federation's site, golf didn't arrive in Greece until the 1950s and the first 18 hole course was built in 1964. I am going to reclassify Argea as Greek American. Craig.Scott 01:45, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
