After busting onto the scene with his first career win at the Farmers Insurance Open, the Spaniard is yet another budding young star, whose game clearly matches the passion and artistry of his musical interests. Honoring Arnold Palmer At the start of 2017, PGA TOUR Commissioner Jay Monahan called for this season’s top priority to be to make Mr. Palmer proud.
