- Green background for 1st. Yellow background for top-10.
- All-time money list rank is complete as of February 24, 2008.
- Nicklaus' position on the all-time money list is misleading, given he is regarded as the greatest golfer of all time. Tournament purses have expanded considerably since his prime. For example, Nicklaus received $144,000 for winning the Masters in 1986 while Zach Johnson received $1,305,000 for winning the Masters in 2007.
- Despite leading the Tour in scoring average 8 times, Nicklaus never won the Vardon Trophy because he often did not play the minimum required number of rounds to qualify for the trophy.

[edit] Miscellaneous stats
- Nicklaus won the prestigious The Players Championship three times (though never at the TPC at Sawgrass, the current Players site and a course whose setup he harshly criticized, likening some of its approach shots to "stopping a 5-iron on the hood of a car").
- He won various events around the globe, including six Australian Opens (1964, 1968, 1971, 1975, 1976 and 1978).[3]
- He is second to Sam Snead on the all-time list of players with most PGA Tour wins, having accumulated seventy-three titles.
- In seventeen consecutive seasons from 1962 to 1978 he always won at least two PGA Tour titles, and always finished in the top four on the money list.
- In 1996, Nicklaus was the first person to win the same Senior PGA Tour (now the Champions Tour) event four times, when he captured The Tradition tournament.
- Nicklaus is the only person in the history of the PGA to win all of the major championships on both the PGA Tour and Champions Tour. (Although he never won the Senior British Open, it was not recognized as a major in the United States until 2003, after he had stopped playing the Champions Tour.)
- With 8 Champions Tour major championship victories, he has won more than any other golfer.
- Nicklaus is 13-10 in PGA Tour playoffs and 2-1 in Champions Tour playoffs.
- At the 1990 Senior PGA Championship Nicklaus shot a 27-under-par 261 at Dearborn Country Club, the lowest 72-hole total in Champions Tour history.
