Obama Meets "The King"

Today, golfing great Arnold Palmer received the prestigious Congressional Gold Medal from President Barack Obama.


The award given to Palmer became official when Obama signed the Arnold Palmer Gold Medal Act while Arnie was present in the White House.

Even the division over health care was not enough to prevent 2/3 of the Senate from sponsoring the award.

The Congressional Gold Medal was first awarded to George Washington, and Palmer is now the second golfer to have received this honor (Byron Nelson was the first).

Congratulations to the King.
