It’s time for Arnie’s tournament!
Welcome to one of the Tour’s most iconic stops - Bay Hill Club in Orlando, FL.
This tournament has a lot of rich history.
Speaking of Tiger, this is also a tournament that he’s historically dominated at.
There are a handful of tracks that were on his annual schedule that he just obliterated fields at.
12 of the past 18 tournaments has come down to a single stroke and last year was no different.
Easily one of the funnier coins that have ever been thrown down.
The rough is typically pretty gnarly and I’ve heard that’s especially true this week.
I would attribute that more to driving accuracy than distance, mainly due to that aforementioned water.
Best Hole - 6th Hole, Par 5 555 yards (… or is it?)
This is a whale of a hole where something interesting almost always happens.
The lake that separates the 3rd and 6th holes is nearly a perfect circle.
This creates a fascinating dilemma in terms of what line the players take off the tee.
Obviously the further left your line, the more water and risk you take on.
Maybe somebody will have the balls to try it again, maybe they won’t.
Who knows if anyone else has the balls to try it again.

TV Coverage
The API is always an NBC and Golf Channel show.
Fitting given Arnie heckin founded the Golf Channel.
I don’t know that people know and appreciate that like they should.
Dude was a visionary.
That’s not just some little golfer on top.
That’s the King with his classic high helicopter follow through.
I love everything about it.
This is another high grade, I’m giving this ensemble an8.6/10.
The Board
Scottie Scheffler is the favorite at Draftkings (#DKPartner) as of 6:30 am on Thursday.
Scottie’s my official pick at+650anyway.
This is one he’s always played well at and has even won.
Taking himTop 10 -140too.
Maybe this is the one.
That’s what I got.
Apologies for the late send, been a wild week in Banks world.
Enjoy the Arnie Palmie.
