The Tournament Contenders

The top stars are set to line up at Bay Hill Club and Lodge, including Scottie Scheffler. The 28-year-old had a remarkable 2024, but the world No. 1 has yet to win a tournament this year.

Scheffler, last year’s Masters champions, heads to Florida as the favourite. The New Jersey-born ace won the Arnold Palmer last season, beating Wyndham Clark to the line by 5 strokes. Scheffler is priced at just 4.20 to retain his crown.

Next on the list is Northern Ireland star Rory McIlroy. The 35-year-old has been playing some good stuff of late, winning the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am at the start of February. McIlroy is capable of winning any competition, and the world No. 2 is available at 8.50 to get his hands on the trophy.

Ludvig Aberg (14.00) and Xander Schauffele (17.00) have been tipped to go far, while Colin Morikawa and Justin Thomas are priced at 19.00.

Scheffler to Secure Third Arnold Palmer Crown?

Scheffler enjoys the Bay Hill Club and Lodge, and the world’s best golfer is the man to beat in Florida. He heads to Bay Hill as the favourite and the defending champion.

Last season’s success was Scheffler’s second Arnold Palmer victory. In 2022, he edged past Tyrrell Hatton, Billy Horschel, and Viktor Hovland by a stroke to win his first.

Scheffler’s season is threatening to take off, and a tied third-place finish at the Genesis Open a few weeks back was a step in the right direction. We are backing Scheffler to win in Bay Hill this week (4.20).

As an alternative bet, why not back Hideki Matsuyama to finish in the top five? The Japanese kicked off the season by winning The Sentry, and Matsuyama is nicely priced at 5.20 to secure a top-five finish in the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
