- Known simply as “The King”, Arnold Palmer is widely credited with popularising the game thanks to his charismatic personality and his attacking style, never knowingly backing off.
At the 89th Open Championship, Palmer made an immediate impact on his debut in 1960. Finishing runner-up to Ken Nagle, only missing out on the Claret Jug by one stroke.
The next two tournaments are where the American established his Open legacy, winning back-to-back titles in 1961 and 1962.
Palmer would end his Open career at The 124th Open in 1995, at the home of golf, St Andrews. At the same Championship, an exciting young player by the name of Tiger Woods made his debut.

Which modern player would you compare the great Arnold Palmer to? Let us know...
It's hard to say really. I haven't seen much of him beside the odd archive piece. One of my earliest golf memories is seeing him say farewell to The Open in 1995.
There really isn’t anyone to compare to Arnold Palmer 🍹.
He was a fierce competitor, a lovable gentleman,he invented branding,he started the golf channel,he loved the game and the people loved him ❤
He was one of a kind .
None.... Arnie is the reason why golfers are what they are now and why they have the lifestyle they have now..... He was a working class man and was loved for that and the way he attacked everything.... Swashbuckling....... A great man and great great golfer
Jordan Spieth him and Arnold Palmer both know how to win and loose in crazy fashion

Oh boy. Tear jerker for sure. Legend
There’s no one that can match he, Tiger, and Seve’s swag. Coolest holders of all time
Arnold Palmer was around as a golfer for a long time but passed away and the plan was for him to he remembered as a golfer who lasted for years if not months.
