We have a strong field competing in this weekโs Arnold Palmer Invitational, which tees off starting tomorrow. While Scottie Scheffler is the +650 favorite to win in Bay Hill, heโs tied for 17th in tickets at 2.1% ๐ค.
So which golfers have received the most bets to take home the API?
1. Will Zalatoris (+3500) 7.6%
The health concerns following Zalatorisโ back surgery disappeared after an impressive runner-up finish at Riviera a few weeks ago.
2. Justin Thomas (+2800) 4.8%
Is his buy-low window ๐ช closing? Thomas has finished in the top 10 twice in his four 2024 tournaments.
3. Matt Fitzpatrick (+3300) 4.4%
One Illinois bettor put $1,000 on Fitzpatrick at +3300 for a total potential payout of $34,000.
4. Jake Knapp (+6000) 4.0%
In the year of the longshot, who was the golfer with the shortest odds to win any PGA Tour event this season? That would be Knapp at +4000 ๐ฎ in Februaryโs Mexico Open.
5. Sahith Theegala (+7500) 3.6%
In his second career API appearance last year, Theegala was one of only six players with scores of par or better in all four rounds.
