This Day in Arnie Golf--Sept. 6

Now through what would have been Arnold Palmer's 88th birthday on Sept. 10, This Day in Golf will look at lesser-known Arnie dates: Sept. 6, 1958, was the second round of the Utah Open at Salt Lake Country Club. Arnie followed a 65 with a 69, then shot 68 and 66 to shoot 268 and tie Fred Hawkins for second, one shot behind winner Dow Finsterwald. The T-2 was worth $1,350. A side note: While in Salt Lake City for the tournament, Palmer, who had won his first Masters earlier that year, looked over and approved the story he was doing with Golf Digest that became the November 1958 cover story, "How I Improved My Putting."
