PGA Tour: Arnold Palmer Invitational Best Bets – Thursday, March 6, 2025
The latest installment of the Arnold Palmer Invitational is coming up soon, with golfers taking the stage on Thursday, March 6 at Bay Hill Golf Course in Orlando, Florida.

Arnold Palmer Invitational Betting Preview
The 2025 Arnold Palmer Invitational will be at the prestigious Bay Hill Golf Course. This is a Par 72 that spans roughly 7,470 yards, but can be a tough challenge to those having a bad time coming into this event.
The fairways are about average in width compared to other courses on the Tour, while the greens are a bit larger. In addition, Bermuda grass is used throughout and might be difficult for some to read on the greens.
Winning scores at this event have varied over the years from -4 all the way to -15. Other factors to consider for the best golfer to win would be strokes gained approach, driving distance, and putting.
Golfers That Could Win
The Arnold Palmer Invitational features a star-studded field of the best golfers in the world. While Scheffler is favored to win, there are some golfers that could make a run at the title. Below are a few that could do well here.
Russell Henley +4000
Henley is currently ranked 14th in the Official World Golf Rankings and has great momentum coming into this event. Out of four events this season, he has cracked the top-10 three times.
He recently had a T6 finish at the Cognizant Classic with a -15 score, showing he can add up the points quickly. He also placed T4 here last season, so this is back at a course he knows well.
Wyndham Clark +5000
Clark is currently seventh in the world rankings, but has yet to crack the top-10 in five events so far this season. His recent performance was a T31 at the Genesis Open.
He recorded a second place finish at this event last season, scoring -10. However, he has had mixed results here. Other starts here he had a 34th, a missed cut, and a 68th.
Odds, Series Trends and Free Pick
MyBookie has you set with the best Arnold Palmer Invitational betting odds. Current PGA odds show Scheffler a step ahead of the rest, and for good reason.
Not only is he ranked as the best golfer in the world, but he has won this event twice during his career. He won last year, placed fourth in 2023, won in 2022, and was 15th in 2020 (did not play in 2021).
He already has two top-10 finishes out of three events this season, so he has excellent momentum. Look for Scheffler to at least crack the top 10 in the leaderboard and have a great chance to win.
Final Pick: Scottie Scheffler +320
