Arnold Palmer (1929 - 2016) was the winner of 29 PGA Tour events including 7 major championships. As noted by Jack Nicklaus, "Arnold transcended the game of golf. He was more than a golfer or even great golfer. He was an icon. He was a legend. Arnold was someone who was a pioneer in his sport. He took the game from one level to a higher level, virtually by himself."
