Testimonial

“Thanks so much sharing both videos from the 2019 King’s Cup here at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge. I watched both videos and thoroughly enjoyed them both.

I know Mr. Palmer would have been so pleased, and honored, having this great group of golfers battling for the King’s Cup, right here at his home.

Wishing you, and all those involved with the event, all the very best, and good luck for next year’s competition in Ireland!!”

With kind regards,
Roy Saunders • Vice President
