ORLANDO, Fla. – With no letup to the difficult scoring conditions during the final round at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, Matthew Fitzpatrick found the best strategy was just to embrace them.
Fitzpatrick was a rare player in red figures during another blustery day at the home of The King. His double bogey on No. 17 proved to be his lone blemish of the afternoon, as the Englishman signed for a 3-under 69 that was poised to be the only round in the 60s all weekend on the par-72 layout.
“It was just a grind,” Fitzpatrick said. “It felt like, just get it around, just advance the ball and then get it closer and then try and hole a putt.
