The last stop before the Players Championship, the Arnold Palmer Invitational will include a stacked field, including World No. 1 Rory McIlroy, gearing up for one of the Tour’s premier events.
McIlroy, the champion of this event back in 2018, has made five starts this Tour season and has finished inside the top five each time. He also will be preparing his game as he defends his Players victory at TPC Sawgrass victory.
Along with McIlroy, WGC-Mexico victor Patrick Reed will be teeing off this week at Bay Hill, as will Rickie Fowler coming off a missed cut at the Honda Classic. Past API champion Phil Mickelson and Orlando residents Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson and Graeme McDowell are also all in the Bay Hill field.
The winner will receive 500 FedEx Cup points and a $1.674 million cut of the $9.3 million purse.
