There are legends in sport, and then there’s Arnold Palmer. For those of us fortunate enough to have witnessed his impact on golf, we know he transcended the game in ways that continue to resonate today, nearly a decade after his passing in 2016.
I have had the privilege of meeting and conversing with Mr. Palmer on four separate occasions throughout my career. I can attest that the man behind the myth was every bit as genuine as his public persona suggested. Each interaction revealed the same qualities that endeared him to millions: humility, authenticity, and an unwavering dedication to treating people with respect regardless of their station in life.
