The Arnold Palmer Invitational marks the first time this season that Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Xander Schauffele will compete together since the Tour Championship. Schauffele is returning from a rib injury, expressing his eagerness to compete again. Meanwhile, Scheffler has missed early season play due to a hand injury from a cooking accident. McIlroy comes into the tournament after a successful start to his season. Tiger Woods, on the other hand, indicated he is not ready to compete after the recent passing of his mother.
"It's awesome, I missed being out, and just sitting at home, you sort of appreciate a lot of things when you're sort of sidelined."
"I haven't practiced much since the death of my mother, Kultida Woods, on Feb. 4."
"Scheffler, who has won the API twice in the past three years, missed the first month of the season because of a hand injury suffered in a Christmas cooking accident."
"McIlroy spent part of January playing in a DP World Tour event in Dubai, then returned to the PGA Tour and won his first start of the season at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February."
