Palmer is remembered by the golf community for his unmatched character and his contributions to the sport. His death touched the hearts of some of today's best, including Tiger Woods, who reacted on social media.Â
Thanks Arnold for your friendship, counsel and a lot of laughs. Your philanthropy and humility are part of your legend.

(2/2) It’s hard to imagine golf without you or anyone more important to the game than the King.

Arnie was one of the special people in our game. Treated everyone with so much respect. So glad I was able to meet the King. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/RIP?src=hash">#RIP</a>
