Henley takes Championship at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard
ORLANDO, FL – Russell Henley clinched his biggest career victory at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge with a dramatic late charge, including an eagle chip-in on the 16th hole. Trailing Collin Morikawa by three shots with five holes left in the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, Henley made two crucial two-shot swings. He birdied the par-3 14th hole while Morikawa bogeyed, reducing the gap to one shot, and delivered a stunning eagle on the par-5 16th hole.
