This week the PGA Tour has another Signature Event on tap with the 2026 Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, and the two biggest Tour stars top the betting favorites. Here is everything you need to know about the Arnold Palmer Invitational odds and other betting favorites to start the week.

Arnold Palmer Invitational betting favorites

After a week that saw many PGA Tour stars take a break, virtually none of them are sitting out the Arnold Palmer Invitational. That includes World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who comes into the week as the betting favorite at +333 odds to win.

Scheffler is a two-time Arnold Palmer champion, having won in 2022 and 2024. The four-time major champ is seeking his second win of the season in his fifth start. His only finish outside the top 4 was a T12 in his last start at the Genesis Invitational.

World No. 2 Rory McIlroy is in the field, too, making his third PGA Tour start of 2026. McIlroy is next in the odds list behind Scheffler at +333 odds-to-win.

Keeping with the pattern, the third player in the Arnold Palmer Invitational odds is also No. 3 in the Official World Golf Ranking: Tommy Fleetwood (+1800).

Filling out the top 5 are two-time major winners Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa at +2200.

You can see the top 20 and ties in the 2026 Arnold Palmer Invitational betting odds as of Monday morning below.
