There was a time when amateur golf was as revered as its professional counterpart.
Dr. Bob Jones described it as an era when the winner of the U.S. Amateur Championship was considered a major champion.
Then, in the late 1950s, a man named Arnold Palmer stepped onto the scene.
With him, he brought a new era where the professional game gained prominence and the financial rewards began to tip the balance.
It's a fascinating glimpse into how the game has evolved, and how the love of the game still remains at its heart.
