A race to the finish line on Friday gave us a crowded leaderboard heading into the weekend action at Bay Hill
The 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational may not be a major championship, but don't tell the top of the leaderboard that. Scottie Scheffler, Brian Harman, Wyndham Clark, Hideki Matsuyama, Shane Lowry and Russell Henley all share the 36-hole lead at Bay Hill Club & Lodge at 7 under after the second-round action on Friday.
It appeared Lowry would be alone in the lead throughout most of the day, but late charges from the likes of Clark and Scheffler helped make it a crowded party atop the leaderboard. The reigning U.S. Open champion rattled off five birdies in his last six holes to get to 7 under, one group ahead of Scheffler.
After playing his first 11 holes in even par, Scheffler chipped in for eagle on the par-5 12th to get things going. The big bird was followed with a pair of pars before a turkey of birdies from Nos. 15-17. Scheffler faced a 20-foot birdie bid on the last to push his name past the rest, but he ultimately settled for par and a six-way share of the lead heading into what will surely be a difficult weekend.
