This Day in Golf History: October 25

On this date in 1967, Arnold Palmer shot a first-round 76 in the Sahara Invitational at Paradise Valley Country Club in Las Vegas. That included putting a ball in the water and one out-of-bounds. Properly stimulated, he roared back into the mix with a pair of 68s in Rounds 2 and 3 but shot over par in the final round with 72, giving him a 284 total and a tie for 34th. Jack Nicklaus won with a 270 total.
