American Arnold Palmer, known as “The King” of professional golf, died on Sunday in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was 87-years-old. The head of his company, Arnold Palmer Enterprises, confirmed that Palmer died from issues related to heart problems. He was admitted to a hospital Thursday, but his health reportedly worsened over the past few days. Arnold Palmer is considered among the most important players in the history of golf. He won seven major championships and 62 other Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) Tour events. Before Palmer’s long career, golf was considered a sport mainly for rich people. Many Americans liked his aggressive style of play, and the way he seemed at ease with both presidents and the golfing public. Palmer became a sports star at about the same time television moved into most American homes. His good looks, devilish smile and go-for-broke thinking helped make golf appealing to one and all. Other players remembered Palmer on Sunday. Tiger Woods said Palmer added excitement to the game.
