The big winner at the Bay Hill Golf Club and Lodge yesterday was the Bay Hill Golf Club and Lodge. Saturday's all-day wind and chill led to an afternoon in which, incredibly, only one player shot under par at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Max Homa's 2-under-70 was two strokes better than a group of seven at even-par 72, on a day when eight players shot in the 80s.
When the smoke cleared, Tyrell Hatton, who had an up-and-down round himself, held a two-stroke lead over Marc Leishman and Rory McIlroy. Hatton posted a 1-over 73 and is 6 under heading into today's finale. Leishman's even-par 72 has him at 4 under, along with McIlroy, who also shot 73. The 72 group also included Xander Schauffele, Viktor Hovland and Bryson DeChambeau.
Gator Billy Horschel is tied for 51st at plus 7 after a 5-over 77, and Brian Gay is tied for 59th st plus 9 after a 6-over 78. Seminole Brooks Koepka was one of the plus-80 shooters (81) and is also 9 over.
