The Arnold Palmer Invitational (API) final round at Bay Hill in Orlando, Fla.
Francesco Molinari shoots final-round of 64 to capture top prize at Arnold Palmer Invitational. Molinari’s (-12) 276 total score was enough to overtake close competitors Matthew Fitzpatrick (-10), fellow Ryder Cup partner Tommy Fleetwood (-9), early round leader Rafa Cabrera Bello (-9), and South Korean Sungjae Im (-9). Molinari hails from Turin, Italy, and he has had an outstanding 2018 season, going 5-0 in the Ryder Cup, winning “The Open Championship” and now starting his 2019 season off with this victory at Bay Hill. He heads into this week’s Players Championship with maximum momentum and a heavy favorite.
All is well at API.
