Kingdom (magazine)

Kingdom is a golf magazine founded by American golfer Arnold Palmer. The magazine was first published in December 2003.^[1]

The magazine is published by golf media specialists, TMC USA,^[1] and was the brainchild of publisher, Matthew Squire, and the then president of Arnold Palmer Design Company, Ed Seay.

Originally conceived as an annual magazine solely for the private members of Arnold Palmer designed golf courses, Kingdom is now widely available. Averaging 200 pages in length and weighing over two pounds, it can be considered a coffee table publication.

Published three times a year, each issue carries an in depth interview with Palmer along with other articles about his life and activities. Editorial content is not limited to Palmer; Donald Trump is a regular contributor and many famous celebrities and golfers from Tom Watson to Vince Gill have appeared. There are also features on travel, golf, design, fitness, and other lifestyle articles.

The magazine has drawn critical praise for its standard of production and design, an aspect that has been principally driven by British art director, Leon Harris. The magazine also has an accompanying website, arnieskingdom.com which, along with the print magazine, is jointly overseen by Los Angeles based lifestyle editor Reade Tilley and golf editor Robin Barwick.
