ORLANDO, Fla. – Another year, another near-miss for Henrik Stenson at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Stenson has been a mainstay on Bay Hill leaderboards for the past four years, and he once again had a chance Sunday to claim an elusive title. Beginning the final round two shots behind Jason Day, the Swede grabbed a share of the lead with birdies on Nos. 12 and 13.
But he dropped a shot on the very next hole, and his title chances ended at the par-5 16th. After hitting 3-wood off the tee as he had all week, Stenson tugged his 4-iron approach into the water, leading to a costly bogey.
