2021 Arnold Palmer Invitational final round preview
If you were looking for a touchpoint moment in the early PGA Tour season, you found one in Bryson DeChambeau Saturday. The 27-year-old U.S. Open champion set the golf world ablaze on Saturday when he blasted a 370-yard drive over the lake on the famed sixth hole. While DeChambeau didn’t attempt to drive the green on the water-guarded par-5, his celebration after connecting with his tee shot will likely serve as this weekend’s lasting image. He enters Sunday’s final round just a stroke back of the lead and with a boatload of momentum.
At the 54-hole mark, Bryson trails only Lee Westwood, who is looking for his first victory in more than a decade. Westwood (-11) will have to fend off a star-studded list of chasers in addition to the surging DeChambeau, including Jordan Spieth (-9), Tommy Fleetwood (-8) and Rory McIlroy (-7).
Below is the payout information, including winner’s share, for the Arnold Palmer Invitational’s $9.3 million purse; you can catch the action from 12:30-2:30 p.m. ET on Golf Channel, and from 2:30 p.m. till the completion of play on NBC.
