Bay Hill has been a signature PGA Tour golf course for a while, with the Arnold Palmer Invitational featuring many notable past winners. Scottie Scheffler won the event in 2022 and 2024, as each were precursors for MAsters victories, while Tiger Woods won the tournament eight times in his career.
This year’s defending champion is Russell Henley, who will be partnered with Scheffler for the first two rounds of the tournament. The field also includes Justin Thomas making his first start of the PGA Tour season, along with Xander Schauffele and Rory McIlroy.
Here’s everything you need about how to watch the action from Bay Hill.
