Collin Morikawa returns to the Arnold Palmer Invitational aiming to conquer his Bay Hill demons after last year's painful three-shot collapse to Russell Henley. Despite a slow start to the 2025 season, Morikawa enters the week ranked 23rd in strokes gained off the tee, hoping to shift the focus back to his performance on the course.
While Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have yet to hit their peak form this year, Morikawa is well-positioned to challenge for the title. Bay Hill's demanding layout favors precision, a trait Morikawa currently possesses.
