    Arnold Palmer was the original badass on the PGA. Most people don’t know this but unlike Tiger and Jack Palmer didn’t play in all four majors until he was in his 30’s..If he played in more majors in his 20’s he would have won even more.

    Palmer was so so exciting to watch on the course. He was so bold. He never laid up. He loved golf intensely. You could feel golf was in his veins. He was the most popular golfer ever. No golfer comes close. Palmer dominated golf from about 1956 through 1970. He was so popular that when he played against Nicklaus, Nicklaus was booed often. Palmer was loved by millions of loyal fans. He is the 4th best golfer of all time !!!!

    There have been a few better golfers, though not many, but there has never been a nicer, more important golfer than Arnold. After watching him in the early 60’s, I got into golf and it has been a lifetime love affair. We’ ll never see another golfer have such a large impact on the sport.

    Palmer was one of the stars at a trick shot event at the BRR&C back around 2004; as everyone one in the crowd rushed to the Par 3, he stayed back on the Par 4 just finished; practicing putting. He looked up saw me and wave me to come over; he stuck out that big hand and shook mine with a Hello, what is your name. Wow, he was such a great personality.
