Power rankings: Arnold Palmer Invitational
The PGA Tour makes its final stop of the Florida Swing in Orlando this week with the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Mr. Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge.
Matt Every is the two-time defending champion of this event, winning each of the last two years by a shot. Adam Scott, who has won his last two PGA Tour starts, is the headliner, while Henrik Stenson, Rory McIlroy and Jason Day are the challengers looking to snag a pre-Masters win.
Here are our top five players for the Arnold Palmer Invitational:
1. Adam Scott –– Best player on the planet right now and winner of his last two starts. He shot 62 here in 2014 to give himself a 54-hole lead, but he came up short.
2. Henrik Stenson –– Stenson loves himself some Bay Hill. He's been in the top 15 here in four of the last five years. Pretty close to automatic.
3. Justin Rose –– Rose is close to Stenson-level automatic. He has three top-15s in the last three years and hasn't finished outside the top 17 in the last five.
4. Rory McIlroy –– McIlroy has a Sunday problem, as in he can't figure out how to break 70 in his last two final rounds. However, he contended in both those thud finishes. T-11 here in last year's debut.
5. Ryan Moore –– Moore should have won the Valspar Championship, if only he could've made a mid-range putt. Has a good record here, including a T-4 in 2012.
