  • The passing of golfing legend Arnold Palmer in September 2016 prompted the circulation of an old joke, suitably updated for the current political climate, holding that the PGA had changed the term a bad lie (i.e., a disadvantageous shot) to a Hillary in accordance with the famous linkster's last wishes: Unfortunately, some readers failed to recognize the obvious humor and mistook the anecdote for a factual report. The jape was originally shared on the Freedom Sledders forum on 5 October 2016, where it was posted under the subheading Today's Joke. The PGA does have a Golf Glossary on their web site which lists and defines various golfing terms. While a lie is defined as the position of the ball when it has come to rest, neither a bad lie nor a Hillary is included in that glossary. (en)
