This Day in Golf History: December 16

Tied in with the 26th PNC Championship this weekend, on this date in 2012, Arnold Palmer played for the final time in a PGA Tour-associated event when he and grandson Will Wears shot a second-round 76 for 156 to finish 18th in the PNC Father-Son Challenge at Grande Lakes Resort/Ritz-Carlton Golf Club (72, 7,023), in Orlando, Florida. It was his only tour-related event in 2012 and brought to an end a pro career that began in December 1954 with the Miami Open. The PNC winners were Davis Love III-Dru Love, 60-61—121.
