He'd sign every autograph, regardless of how demanding it was of him, responded to every fan letter, was truly the best sportsman there ever was; will never be another like him. RIP

What a class act always will be remembered by me as a classic Down to earth Guy...never had any airs about him

Great interview. Best I’ve had the pleasure to listen in on. I had the opportunity to meet mr. Palmer at the Transamerica tournament in Napa California. He shook my hand, looked me in the eye and made me feel like I was the only person in his presence. What an amazing ambassador for golf. He is missed.

ICON of golf. Paved the way that grew the game,, and also couple golf with business. RIP KING.

The nicest major sports star in history and there is no close second. What a man.

Great man with such an obvious and enduring love for the game of golf

You could tell Arnie was on the downslide here. He seemingly never had a bad thing to say about anyone. A total class act and consummate gentleman. Thanks for posting this.

What a remarkable man ! Truly passionate about the game of golf plus what he has done with his charities.

😳 amazing interview with the king. Just 1 year before he passed away. Awesome

Just pure class! What an incredible life Mr Palmer Had! 😃👍

His rivalry with Jack Nicklaus is legendary. The magic three Gary Player Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer wow what a trio.

When someone asked what does Make America Great Again mean...I think of a few things but the main two is the US being a manufacturing powerhouse and the class and embodiment of the American dream that was Arnold Palmer....the young people could learn a lot by the way this man carried himself.

One of a kind a true ambassador of golf. Younger athletes should take notice.

Show them! Don't talk about it! The King..Arnold Palmer.

Just watched his youtube interview by Graham Bensinger last week....R.I.P. Mr. Palmer, you'll be missed.

Superb interview. BRAVO!

Beloved, respected, highly accomplished on several levels. Probably the best example I can point to of a successful American man.

great interview..what a guy

I could listen to Arnold for hours. So interesting and relaxing hearing him tell stories.

I miss him just being in the world, because he simply makes it a better place. I met him at the Masters twice and he was the nicest pro I ever met. The only guy that comes close to him was Ernie Els that's not only a great golfer, but a great man as well also. I'm really thankful for men like this along with Gary Player and Jack and people like that, instead of all the trash talking criminals in other sports we pay millions to so they can act like thugs and do jail time and drugs. I can't even watch them anymore and I give my time and respect to golf more than any sport by far thanks to men like Mr. Palmer and those like him. May God bless them for all the good they do that give us something to look up to and act like.

Denny Law that man Arnold left a legacy

Changed golf in so many positive ways. Took it from a pastime of the elites to everyone’s game. Put his fans first. A great man.

INSIDE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOVT KILLED HIM TO GET HIS GREEN JACKET

Cool. thank you so much

his record Speaks for itself a true golf champion

I wish I got to meet this man!

Arnie was the man, a class act.

I have a couple Arnold Palmer stories to share. First, I got lessons at Bay Hill back in the late 80's or early 90's from his lifelong friend who was the director of Golf Instruction Mr. Dick Tiddy, which was an amazing experience in itself. At that point the only video playback golf tool they had was in Mr. Palmer's office (2nd floor above the pro shop). Mr. Tiddy had videoed one of my lessons and we were going to look at it. He casually mentioned it was in Mr. Palmer's office. I then thought OMGoodness will he be there? I asked Dick if Mr. Palmer would be there and Dick casually said I don't know if he is or not but he won't mind. So we walk in and the man is sitting at his desk. I was a young Engineer in my late 20's and a U.S. Marine vet and pretty much a flatliner and yet felt nervous as a school girl. Dick asks if we can use the video/computer swing analyzer and Arnie gets up and moves out of the way like No Problem. He turns to me and says "How are you hitting them?" like I was some PGA pro. Nothing but class and Grace. My second story is my fave. It was during the Bay Hill Invitational, it was one of the last years Arnie played in his own tournament and it was Friday and Arnie was playing well and had a legit chance to make the cut if he kept playing well. I was in the crowd following him and you could tell his blood was up and he meant business. I was standing off the eighth green just off the cart path and when Arnie walked on to a section of the cart path the crowd descended on him just wanting to be near the great man...as I said before Arnie was not in the jovial casual mood, he wanted to make the cut and was ultra focused...lol, a big guy stepped into the cart path partially blocking Arnie's path to the next tee box and Mr. Palmer with those Popeye forearms gave the dude an NFL worthy forearm shiver that almost knocked him down. It was awesome as hell. Mr. Palmer ended up fading on the back nine and missed the cut but he gave it everything he had. I have to mention Mr. Tiddy again briefly; tremendous swing coach (top 20 nationally in Golf Digest at the time and played #2 behind Arnie at Wake Forest) who taught me to hit a draw. He had a habit of talking in a low growl and once when I was hitting drivers I hit a really perfectly flushed baby draw and Mr. Tiddy Growled...ALLLLRRIIIGGHHTTT We'll take 18 of those and pitch back to the par 3's. He was a tremendous coach.

He was thee man!

RIP Arnie.

Nicest great athlete in American sports. Every President and other athletes wanted to play with Arnie and most did. Golf wouldn’t be anywhere near as popular if Arnie didn’t come along when he did.

Arnie is 👍👍👍!

6:35. The best!

Arnie a great American and child of the living God

RIP means "Rest in peace." It's a very appropriate comment at the death of a very fine golfer and man.

Now you are playing golf in the sky

Golf Life Get It.

How can you not love this freakin guy! I just wanna give him a hug for some reason lol (no homo)

OK OK, give it a break with that intro. We don't need all that to know what a great man he was.

The relationship with Hogan was more than complicated, it was cold. Furthermore That coldness came from Hogan not from Palmer. Kings and Presidents called him affectionately ARNIE, derisively Hogan never did.

what kinda person asks someone about ALL they dead homies....

Great guy, legendary golfer, but the media protected his image. It was an open secret on tour that he had the JFK philosophy of fidelity and was the king of more than just golf.
