Arnold Palmer will not participate in the Masters Par-3 Contest next week, but does intend to hit a ceremonial tee shot with Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player to start the year's first major, according to a Golf Channel report.
The 85-year-old, four-time Masters winner suffered a dislocated shoulder when he tripped and fell in December and hasn't been able to play golf while he recuperates.
Palmer, who has been a Masters honorary starter since 2007, typically plays in the Par-3 Contest with Nicklaus and Player. It's unclear if a third player will take Palmer's place in the contest or Nicklaus and Player will go off as a twosome.
