Collin Morikawa Arnold Palmer Invitational

ORLANDO, Fla. — The final round of the 2025 Arnold Palmer Invitational is set to begin on Sunday, March 9, with Collin Morikawa leading the pack at 10 under par. After a solid third-round performance of 5-under 67, Morikawa holds a slim one-shot advantage over fellow competitor Russell Henley at 9 under.

Bay Hill Club & Lodge, regarded as one of the most challenging stops on the PGA Tour, promises a thrilling conclusion for golf fans. With opportunities for both bogeys and double bogeys at every turn, the leaderboard remains close, heightening the stakes for all participants.

“Every stroke counts out here, and I’m just focusing on my game,” said Morikawa, who is seeking his first victory in over 16 months. “The course can turn quickly, so I need to keep my head in the game.”

Henley, currently in second place, is three shots clear of key contenders like Jason Day and Tony Finau, who also aim to capitalize on the unfolding drama. Additionally, two-time major champion Rory McIlroy finds himself seven strokes back at 3 under, potentially needing a standout performance to contend for the title.
