FORTY YEARS AGO ARNOLD PALMER drove his golf ball off the Eiffel Tower. In recent days U.S. and European Ryder Cup captains Jim Furyk and Thomas Bjorn also gave it their best shot from high above Paris.

"What a great venue for the Ryder Cup here in Paris," said Bjorn.

And what a great publicity stunt.
