Nicknamed The King, Arnold Palmer was one of golf’s most popular stars and seen as a trailblazer, the first superstar of the sport’s television age, which began in the 1950s.

Palmer had personified the American spirit and took golf out of the country clubs and put it into the living room.

Arnold Palmer’s career spanned more than six decades, he won an incredible 62 PGA Tour titles from 1955 to 1973.

He is ranked fifth on the Tour’s all-time victory list, trailing only Tiger Woods, Sam Snead, Jack Nicklaus, and Ben Hogan.

He won seven major titles in a six-plus-year domination from the 1958 Masters to the 1964 Masters.

He also won the PGA Tour Lifetime Achievement Award in 1998, and in 1974 was one of the 13 original inductees into the World Golf Hall of Fame.
