Harley Palmer don't play, you know, as long as Arnie could play, and that was the last tournament. Arnold Palmer won 1973 the Bob Hope Desert Classic, 10 realized And then Gerald Ford would be the third and usually the defending champion would be with him because the amateurs used to play in the bottle hope and they're taking a year off this year, but You know, a lot of the tour pros did not like the five hour rounds out there during those days, and it's the same thing with Pebble Beach, too, because those those rounds are long and Pebble Beach will not have a Pro and this year the old bean cross.
