Charley Barkley's infamous swing immortalized in Auburn golf tournament logo

Following Arnold Palmer's passing, fans took to social media to petition the PGA Tour to change its logo to a silhouette of the King. Auburn University apparently took notice, for the Tigers are paying respect to one of their own in a similar vein. Although we're sure the honoree doesn't see it as such.

For a charity tournament benefitting it's basketball program, Auburn released this logo of Charles Barkley and his infamous golf swing:

Barkley, whose swing is so broke that Hank Haney couldn't fix it, once said he'd build a statue to anyone who could remedy his game. While that prospect seems bleak, having your alma mater immortalize your, um, uniqueness isn't a bad consolation prize.
