A Date in Golf History--Masters Style

Taking a pause this week to highlight special dates in Masters history, with a focus on four-time winner Arnold Palmer: One of Arnie’s biggest career regrets was the 25th Masters, played in 1961 on April 6-10. Leading by a shot with one hole to play, Palmer let his mind wander after a great drive and made a double bogey to place one shot behind Gary Player. Palmer had scores of 68-69-73-71—281 to tie for second.
