A Date in Golf History--Masters Style

Taking a pause this week to highlight special dates in Masters history, with a focus on Arnold Palmer, four-time winner: Arnie’s first Masters was April 7-10, 1955, his rookie season. He had scores of 76-76-72-69—293, tied for 10th and picking up $695.83, a nice paycheck for someone still in a six-month moratorium against accepting tour money.
