Who is Ken Venturi?
This post from awhile back addressed the dust-up that has occurred between Arnold Palmer and Ken Venturi over Venturi's recent allegation in his new book that Arnie had broken a rule (might we say, cheated?) on the 12th hole of Augusta National on his way to beating Venturi to win his first Masters Golf Tournament in 1958.
Well, Arnie's Tour event -- the Bay Hill Invitational -- is this week. And, as you might expect, a reporter asked Arnie during his annual pre-tournament interview about Venturi's allegations. The King's response was classic:
Reporter: "Mr. Palmer, what is your reaction to the issue at Augusta raised in Ken Venturi's new book?"The King: "I don't know what book you're talking about. I don't know a thing about it. I really don't, and I'm not really too interested. That's my comment. Next question."
