The PGA Tour has put together a wonderful tribute to Arnold Palmer as he celebrates his 85th birthday today. Jay Haas, Tom Watson, Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus narrate a poem that hangs on Arnie’s office wall. It speaks to Arnie’s indomitable will and the way he lived his life. A very classy tribute by the tour for sure.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Palmer when I was employed by the Arnold Palmer Golf Management Corp. Mr. Palmer has always been the optimum example of what virtues the game of golf creates and requires. I wish the “King” the best on the anniversary of his birth. The golf world looks forward to many more years of your endearing presence!
Amen to that Jon.
