The PGA Tour travels to Orlando, Florida this month as the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard gets underway at By Hill Club and Lodge.

It comes less than a week after Austria’s Sepp Straka made history as he was crowned champion at the Honda Golf Classic.

The course will play as a par 72, measuring 7466 yards and will be put on Bermudagrass greens.

Bay Hill has hosted the event since 1979 and will provide golfers with a tough test, with winning scores averaging just above 12-under par since 106.

The star-studded tournament will see the likes of Rory McIlroy, Hideki Matsuyama and John Rahm - who is making his Arnold Palmer Invitational debut - travel to Florida this week.

The 2022 tournament will see the winner claime a $12 million  prize pot and a three-year TOUR exemption.
