2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational Top Pick

The world’s fourth-ranked golfer and defending FedEx Cup winner has had an interesting start to the season. Viktor Hovland finished twenty-second at The Sentry.

He followed the twenty-second place finish at The Sentry up with a fifty-eighth at the 3-round AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. In his last, the Genesis Invitational, Hovland shot well, finishing a tied nineteenth.

His trajectory suggests he is on the verge of a top ten finish. Hovland finished tenth in this last season. So it wouldn’t take much for him to improve enough to lift the trophy.

2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational Second Pick

Xander Schauffele’s first two rounds at the 2023 Arnold Palmer were excellent, -4 and -2. He struggled in the final couple of rounds, shooting a +3 and +1.

Schauffele’s been on fire this season, though. Save for the fifty-plus finish at Pebble Beach, canceling the fourth round destroyed a lot of scorecards, Schauffele boasts three top ten finishes in four tournaments played. The man is ready to win. So if you like, go for it.

2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational Third Pick

Rory McIlroy’s a threat to take a home a trophy every time he steps onto a golf course. So far this season, his sticks haven’t been at their best.

Even if we throw out the sixty-six at Pebble Beach, McIlroy still hasn’t cracked the top 20. The The twenty-first at the Cognizant Classic in the last was decent because he shot three rounds of 68 or better. Still, at the odds, and even if Rory ends up in the final pairing on Sunday, he’s tough to put on top.

2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational Underdog Pick

The Genesis Invitational win was nice. But even before taking the Gensis, Matsuyama’s form wasn’t bad. He finished thirteenth at the Farmers Insurance Open.

Then in the tournament before the Genesis, the WM Phoenix Open, Hideki finished a great twenty-second. The man is hitting the ball well and offers overlay odds. What’s not to like?
