The Local Knowlege

Paying homage to Arnie

The players at the BMW Championship on Thursday all wore a small rainbow-colored umbrella pin, Arnold Palmer's logo, in honor of Palmer's 80th birthday.

Here's hoping they go that one better and fill every autograph request they receive, too, in a bow to a man who selflessly gave more of himself to a crowd than any star in the history of the game.
