It has been a year since the golf community mourned the loss of three-time USGA champion Arnold Palmer. (USGA Archives)

Arnold Palmer changed golf in America forever. One year ago, the American golf landscape changed forever when Palmer passed away at the age of 88. He was the only Volunteer National Chairman the USGA Members Program has ever known. Take a moment to celebrate his legacy on the past, present and future of the game by watching a video about his life on the course and in the spotlight.
