About Bay Hill Club & Lodge
Bay Hill Club & Lodge is home to the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard. The Arnold Palmer design incorporates Bear Creek and Lake Tibet-Butler into play on multiple holes, creating memorable risk-reward decisions. The iconic 18th — a long par-4 along the lake — has produced some of golf's most dramatic tournament finishes.
Betting Intelligence
Wind is the defining variable at Bay Hill — prevailing afternoon wind from the southwest significantly increases difficulty. SG: Approach matters on the demanding water-adjacent holes. The 18th is a handicap-1 hole that often decides outcomes — players who make clutch birdies there have disproportionate results. Bermuda putting expertise from Florida/Southeastern tour experience transfers.
