Arnold Palmer Invitational Best Bets

Akshay Bhatia

If you’re looking for a golfer trending in the right direction and has an excellent price tag, Akshay Bhatia should draw plenty of interest this week. Bhatia is coming off a pair of top-ten finishes and is due to finish the job. He’s been one of the most consistent players in the world in his last ten starts overall, which gives us some confidence heading into this event. 

Best Bet: Bhatia to Win Outright (+8000)

Rory McIlroy

If there’s a golfer who’s been the definition of consistency at this event over the last decade, it’s assuredly Rory McIlroy. Although this isn’t a significant number in the grand scheme, it’s undoubtedly deserved when you factor in his success at the tournament. McIlroy finished in the top 13 in four of his last six starts at this event. I love how McIlroy is heading into this big purse event. 

Best Bet: McIlroy to Win Outright (+750)

Tommy Fleetwood

It’s only a matter of time before we see Tommy Fleetwood’s breakthrough on the PGA Tour. Fleetwood has four top-six finishes in his last seven worldwide starts. That’s a sign that Fleetwood has figured things out and is starting to bring the consistency necessary to be a winner on tour. It’s easy to get excited about this price tag, which stands out when you factor in his recent play and how his game aligns with this course. 

Best Bet: Fleetwood to Win Outright (+3300)

Sahith Theegala

To say it hasn’t been a perfect start to the golf season for Sahith Theegala would be a pretty big understatement. Still, we know what Theegala can do when he puts his entire game together, which hasn’t happened yet in 2025. This is an excellent opportunity for him to get things right and start trending positively. Theegala has a pair of top 15 finishes at this event in the last two years, which makes us believe this price tag is a severe bargain. 

Dark Horse Best Bets: Theegala to Win Outright (+10000)
