World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler may not have been at his brilliant best since winning the American Express in January but has found Bay Hill a happy hunting ground in the past and will arrive in search of his third title.

Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, and 2025 winner Russell Henley are among Scheffler's competition for the red sweater and largest share of the $20 million prize fund in the 72-strong field.

It's an event that tends to go right down to the wire, with five of the last six champions, including Henley, winning by a one-shot margin.

Excitement is building among fans, with the Players Championship nearly upon us and The Masters, the first of the year's majors, fast approaching. Extensive coverage of all four days of the Arnold Palmer Invitational 2026 is the perfect way to kick off a fantastic few months of golf.

Radio Times brings you all the details about how to watch the Arnold Palmer Invitational 2026.
