API 2026 - Contenders based on current form
Scottie Scheffler @ 7/24.50
Backing all four suggested bets to a level stake means you still make a small profit should world number one Scottie Scheffler win at Bay Hill this week. Scheffler, as always, is in fine form having finihed inside the top 13 in his last four starts including a win and a third and fourth place finish which really should have been wins but for a poor opening round. His course form also stands out having won here in 2022, finished fourth a year later and then won again in 2024. He's a rock solid pick both on course form and current form.
Shane Lowry @ 40/141.00
Shane Lowry will have been a bit disappointed with blowing a third round lead at the Cognizant Classic last week but his runner-up finish there means he's enjoying a good time of it of late with a top 10 and top 25 finish in the two preceding weeks. He commenced his year with a third place finish at the Dubai Invitational so he has some good recent form to his name, and at Bay Hill has has finished third and seventh in his last two visits.

Russell Henley @ 28/129.00
Russell Henley had three consecutive top 20 finishes this year prior to missing the cut at the Genesis Invitational two weeks ago so he'll be keen to get back on track, and at a venue he enjoys he has a big chance of doing so. The talented American finished 13th at Bay Hill in 2022 and improved on that to finish fourth in 2024, and last year he went three places better by winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Corey Conners @ 70/171.00
At a big price Corey Conners could be worth keeping an eye on this week. The Canadian has finished no better than 37th in his last three starts so he's not in great form, but a return to Bay Hill could get the juices flowing again. Conners has finished no worse the 21st here in his last five visits which includes two third place finishes in 2021 and 2025.
