inside clAssic cluB rOYAl reMeMBrAnce The King is gone but he's never far from our thoughts S eptember is always a special month here at Classic Club. That's because it's the time we celebrate the birthday of one of the game's greatest and most charismatic legends – as well as the multi-talented man who designed our golf course. Arnold Palmer would have been 89 years old on Sep- tember 10 and though it's been two years since his passing, the King is never far from our thoughts. While he's designed hundreds of world-class tracks around the globe, being a golf course architect was just one of his many attributes. He also happened to be a world-renowned philanthropist, devoting countless hours to charitable causes and helping to raise tens of millions of dollars for those in need. Mr. Palmer was also a gentleman in the truest sense of the word. He once penned an article for Golf Digest entitled "10 Rules For Good Golf Etiquette" that should be required reading for any student of the game. (You can find it here.) The piece truly embodies the sentiment that it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game. The King always played with grace and class. And that's ex- actly how we like to remember him. GREG RUBINO, General Manager BOOK A tee tiMe The Classic Club Insider is produced in association with Inside Golf Media.
