This Day in Arnie History: September 18

The 1971 Ryder Cup ended on this date at Old Warson Country Club in St. Louis, with the U.S. defeating Great Britain, 18.5 to 13.5. On the final day, Arnold Palmer played two singles matches. He and Harry Bannerman halved in the morning, and then Peter Oosterhuis downed Arnie, 3 and 2, in the afternoon.
