Event Preview

One of the standout events on the PGA Tour is set for this week, as the Arnold Palmer Invitational is staged in Florida. A field of world-class players will be in action to win their share of the $20 million purse at Bay Hill Club and Lodge.

A total distance of 7,466 yards will be covered by the field in the stroke play event, with the par 72 event being held annually in March. The tournament record aggregate score was set by Payne Stewart in 1987, while the par record was set by Buddy Allin in 1973.

Scottie Scheffler will be a very hot selection this week, as the world’s top-ranked player looks to win the Arnold Palmer for a third time. He was a dominant five-stroke winner of the event in 2024, but he is such a short price in the betting this week.

Rory McIlroy will be a decent alternative after already having recorded a win on the PGA Tour this season. The European player will be aiming to build momentum ahead of the first major of the season next month.

Tommy Fleetwood has once again been consistent at the start of the new season, and is incredibly hard to rule out.

The Englishman was last in action finishing in a tie for fifth at the Genesis Open. Ludvig Aberg also holds leading claims after winning the event at Torres Pines last month.


Arnold Palmer Invitational Picks

Collin Morikawa appears to be an interesting selection at the prices this weekend. The American has a strong record at the event, and he has already shown pieces of his best form this season.

Despite making a slow start, he finished strongly when shooting five-under in the final round of the Genesis Open last month.
