Course Overview

The Arnold Palmer Invitational is one of the most prestigious Signature Events on the PGA Tour, hosted at Bay Hill Club and Lodge in Orlando, Florida — the beloved home club of the late Arnold Palmer. Bay Hill plays to approximately 7,466 yards at par 72, featuring wide fairways, Bermuda rough, and large, undulating Bermuda greens that are set up tightly for tournament play. The course consistently ranks in the top three for scoring difficulty when the Tour visits.

The famous closing par-4 18th hole plays around a lake to a narrow green and is one of the most nerve-wracking closing holes in golf. Rory McIlroy has a remarkable record here, winning multiple times.

What to Look For

Bay Hill rewards elite ball-striking and the ability to keep the ball in play off the tee. Approach play into the large Bermuda greens and putting performance are critical. As a Signature Event, the field is limited to the world’s best. Past champions include Jon Rahm, Tyrrell Hatton, and Francesco Molinari.

STAKING: At PGT, we apply a strict and consistent staking strategy to every tip we publish. All published results on our site are calculated on the basis of one (1) unit per tip, unless otherwise stated. The actual dollar value of a unit (if any) is determined by each individual — it may be for a no-value bet with a friend, or $5 or $50. This methodology is for record-keeping and educational purposes only and is not a recommendation to bet or to bet in any particular way.

Competitor	Tip Type	Odds	Units	Result	Rationale
Akshay Bhatia	Win	95/1(+9500)	1.00	LOSS	IN RED 🔥 FORM @ SILLY ODDS: PGA Arnold Palmer Invitational @ Orlando, Florida, USA 6th to 9th March Tee Off our time @ 11:45pm Normally this left hander is half these odds and often the odds makers have him way to short. I like backing players when I deem them as Value. AB has already to Top 10s in 2025 but in all 5 events in 2025 he has not finished further back than 32nd in HOT Fields. This is what he has carded in 4 x straight, -16. -10, -8, -6 & -15 in Mexico. Crazy overs here as he sits in 25th overall in SG (yep strokes gained) but he is a whiz with the putter (2t overall in all players rated in PGA) his OFF THE TEA not shabby either @ #80 whilst he imporves to 45th on Approach to Greens. I like him as he always goes around UNDER THE RADAR when he does WIN, we have been o both times, he gets the nerves going as both have been in PLAYOFFS but at 23 he is already a winner x 2 on PGA so onwards & Upwards in 2025. Crazy odds to even Top 10 @ $6.80 & Top 20 @ $3.25.
