ORLANDO, Fla., March 27 (UPI) -- Golfing legend Arnold Palmer returned to his Orlando home Monday after being hospitalized with complications from high blood pressure, officials said. Palmer, 82, who missed the end of his tournament at Bay Hill in Orlando when he was hospitalized Sunday, was released from Dr. Phillips Hospital, the Orlando Sentinel reported. "They did a few tests this morning, and he got home around noon," said Doc Giffin, Palmer's longtime assistant. Other than being tired, he seems to be fine. The doctors told him to slow down -- as much as possible. Palmer's blood pressure had fluctuated after a recent change in medication and his pressure rose suddenly before he was to head to the 18th hole at the end of the tournament. "It wasn't anything to do with any ailments or any discomfort he felt," said Alastair Johnston, head of Arnold Palmer Enterprises. The blood pressure was at a level where the doctor involved suggested that he go immediately to get more intensive evaluation at the hospital. Doctors adjusted Palmer's dosage of medication, Giffin said.
