Arnold Palmer Orlando
The start of the Arnold Palmer Invitational PGA golf tournament at Bay Hill is right around the corner. The weather is always terrific with event proceeds benefiting Central Florida charities. These include the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children and Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies.
As usual, the pre-tournament buzz will center around Tiger Woods. Mr. Woods won his first pro title in 2011 by winning the Chevron World Challenge in late December in California and then Bay Hill in 2012. In good times past, Tiger supercharged his ultimate Masters appearances by doing well at Bayhill. Local fans will be rewarded by Tiger Woods appearance at Bay Hill.

- Graham McDowell and Tiger Woods
- Ernie Els
- Phil Mickelson
- Brandt Snedeker
- Zach Johnson
- Bubba Watson
