Collin Morikawa Seeks Redemption at Arnold Palmer Invitational

Collin Morikawa returns to Bay Hill with a point to prove after last year's disappointing loss to Russell Henley, hoping to finally conquer his demons.

Morikawa faced criticism last year after blowing a three-shot lead to Henley. Despite a slow start to 2026, he ranks highly in strokes gained and aims to focus on his game rather than past fallout.

Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have also struggled to find top form this season, ranking low in driving accuracy and strokes gained approach. This could make Bay Hill a challenging venue for even the world's best players.
