Golf Rankings for Arnold Palmer Invitational

Choi has gone four straight events without a top-30 finish, but could land one this week. In the last two years the native of South Korea has finished T6 and T17 at Bay Hill.

After recording a solo third at Bay Hill in 2009, Johnson missed the cut the following year and finished T47 in 2011. ZJ has one top-10 and three finishes of 17th or better in six stroke play events this season. He’s currently 15th in All-Around Ranking.

After two straight top-five finishes earlier in the season, Na finished solo 76th at Riviera and T38 at Copperhead. Na finished T30 at Bay Hill last year, but earned a share of second in 2010 and scored a T11 the year before.

It seems like every week a different rookie is putting up an impressive performance. At Copperhead it was Bae with a shared of second after losing in a four-man playoff.

In 2008 O’Hair finished T3 at Bay Hill and solo second the year after. He finished T21 at the site following the redesign in 2010, but missed the cut last year.

Even though Laird is the defending champion at Bay Hill, he’s missed two of his last three cuts in stroke play events.
