Round 3 tee times: What you need to know
So far, this year’s Arnold Palmer Invitational has featured an exciting battle between a host of major champions and veteran PGA Tour winners.
That includes two-time major champ Collin Morikawa, six-time Tour winner Rickie Fowler, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, reigning Masters champ Rory McIlroy and many more.
But when the third round gets underway Saturday morning, the cut will have been made, and the surviving players will begin jockeying for a victory.

Once that happens, the cut will be made and the remaining competitors will be ordered into pairings for Saturday (UPDATE: Round 3 tee times have been released and can be viewed below).
The leaders will tee off last in the afternoon at 1:50 p.m. ET, while the players who narrowly made the cut will open the action around 9:20 a.m. ET.
