Theegala, who started the final day in T-25, birdied three times between the fifth and the eighth. Two more on the 11th and the 13th made it even better but bogeys on the 15th and the 18th, where he missed the fairways, set him back.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In between he birdied the Par-5 16th and carded 68 for a total of 5-under for the week at the US$20 million Signature Event.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler was in dominant form as he shot 6-under 66, the day\u2019s lowest round and was bogey-free and totalled 15-under for a five-shot win. It was also Scheffler\u2019s second title in three years at Bay Hill.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Reigning US Open champion Wyndham Clark finished runner-up after a 70 while co-overnight leader Shane Lowry settled for third place after a 72.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
It was the 27-year-old Scheffler\u2019s seventh PGA Tour and the first official one since the 2023 Players, the PGA Tour's flagship tournament. In between Scheffler did win the Hero World Challenge in Bahamas in late 2023.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"It's really special. Palmer meant a lot to me, meant a lot to us as professional golfers and the game of golf, and so it's very special to be able to sit here and wear his red sweater again,\" said Scheffler.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Korea's Byeong Hun An produced his third top-10 of the season with a final round 68 and a total of 4-under to be T-8.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With Japan\u2019s Hideki Matsuyama, who started the final round at Bay Hill just two off the lead, fading with a disappointing 76 and was T-12.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
It was also An's second top-10 at the US$20 million Signature Event which is held in honour of 62-time PGA TOUR champion, Arnold Palmer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2024\/03\/golf-theegala-finishes-t-6-for-third-top-10-of-the-year-scheffler-wins-palmer-invitational.", "alt_img": "Golf: Theegala finishes T-6 for third Top 10 of the year, Scheffler wins Palmer Invitational", "alt_title": "Golf: Theegala finishes T-6 for third Top 10 of the year, Scheffler wins Palmer Invitational", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Golf: Theegala Finishes T-6 For Third Top 10 Of The Year, Scheffler Wins Palmer Invitational On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Golf: Theegala Finishes T-6 For Third Top 10 Of The Year, Scheffler Wins Palmer Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational: Sahith Theegala produced a fine 4-under 68 despite two late bogeys as he climbed to Tied-sixth place.", "seo_keywords": "Palmer Invitational, Sahith Theegala, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Signature Event, World No, Scottie Scheffler, Bay Hill, Reigning US Open, Wyndham Clark, Shane Lowry, PGA Tour, Hero World Challenge, Byeong Hun An, With Japan, Hideki Matsuyama, PGA", "tag": "", "tagging": "Palmer Invitational, Sahith Theegala, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Signature Event, World No, Scottie Scheffler, Bay Hill, Reigning US Open, Wyndham Clark, Shane Lowry, PGA Tour, Hero World Challenge, Byeong Hun An, With Japan, Hideki Matsuyama", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "golf-theegala-finishes-t-6-for-third-top-10-of-the-year-scheffler-wins-palmer-invitational", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "955", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "0", "created": "2024-03-11 11:40:04", "updated": "2024-03-11 11:40:04", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Palmer Invitational, Sahith Theegala, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Signature Event, World No, Scottie Scheffler, Bay Hill, Reigning US Open, Wyndham Clark, Shane Lowry, PGA Tour, Hero World Challenge, Byeong Hun An, With Japan, Hideki Matsuyama, PGA", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2024-03-11 11:40:04", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "0", "breaking_news": "0", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "sports_name": "golf", "cnmid": "877341", "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/sports-news\/golf-theegala-finishes-t-6-for-third-top-10-of-the-year-scheffler-wins-palmer-invitational-13904" }
