Definitely going to record this. All times below in EST.
http://www.multichannel.com/content/golf-channel-tees-three-part-arnold-palmer-documentary/148635
“Arnie & His Army” – Sunday, April 13 at 10 p.m.: The first installment recalls the people who influenced Palmer and instilled the values of integrity and kindness that helped make him the man he has become both on and off the golf course, with special tribute to his parents Deacon and Doris. This retrospective ranges from stories of Deacon teaching him how to grip a golf club to his early days on the PGA Tour with his first wife, Winnie, as they raised a family together to the men who helped build Palmer into a worldwide brand, and a spokesman for Pennzoil and Rolex.
“Arnie & His Majors” - Monday, April 14 at 10 p.m.: The second episode remembers Palmer’s competitive career, his go-for-broke style and his ups and downs at golf’s major championships. Covered are his amateur victories, including the U.S. Amateur in 1954, which he calls his most important win ever; his four Masters titles in a span of only seven years; the thrills of his U.S. Open victories; and how winning the Open Championship in 1960 at St. Andrews changed that major championship forever in the minds of American players. Also explored is Palmer’s history with the PGA Championship – the only major that eluded him.
“Arnie & His Legacy” - Tuesday, April 15 at 10 p.m. ET – The concluding hour delves into the legacy of Arnold Palmer and his influence on popular culture, which stretches way beyond the links. He was just as likely to have his photo taken with Hollywood starlet Esther Williams in the 1940s as he was with supermodel Upton in 2013. He even influenced fashion and started an iced tea-lemonade drinking craze with his self-titled refreshment. The Arnold Palmer brand launched a variety of businesses, including managing a marquee tournament on the annual PGA Tour calendar, designing and operating golf courses. The final hour also explores Palmer’s many charitable endeavors, his love of aviation and his hand in keeping competitive golf alive for players over 50.
