And of course, Sam Burns has become connected with Arnold Palmer… But why?

The legendary Arnold Palmer is one of the most revered golfers. The Hall of Famer won 62 PGA Tour titles in his glorious career and has a grandson who is a professional golfer too — but is it, Sam Burns?

The answer is no.

Arnold Palmer is not the grandfather of Sam Burns.

But Arnold Palmer DOES Have A Grandson — It’s Just NOT Sam Burns.

There’s probably a good reason why there are so many questions about who Arnold Palmer’s grandson is.

Many are mistaken that it is Sam Burns, but that’s wrong.

In actuality, Palmer’s grandson’s name is Sam Saunders.

Sam Saunders was a golfer, and his peak world ranking occurred on April 30, 2018, when he was ranked #168 with 0.940 world ranking points. (Source: golfrankingstats.com)
