John Rathouz has several years of experience as a Tour caddie. And now… he’s applying that insider knowledge to help you make proper picks each week with his best bets and predictions. This week, the PGA Tour is in Orlando for the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill Club & Lodge.
Bay Hill is a beast of a course that has been kind to international players with Tyrrell Hatton (England), Francesco Molinari (Italy), Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland), Marc Leishman (Australia) and Jason Day (Australia) all winning in the last five years.
Matt Every is the last American to win at Bay Hill. He went back-to-back in 2014-15.
