When will Rory McIlroy tee off on Friday at the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational? World No.2 golfer’s tee time explored

Rory McIlroy finished Day 1 in the bottom half of the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational leaderboard.

The Northern Irishman failed to break 70 and closed with a 73. The 34-year-old golfer sat T49 after the opening round, sharing the position with the likes of Tom Kim, Webb Simpson, Lucas Glover, Ludvig Aberg, Tommy Fleetwood, Cam Young and Adam Scott.

McIlroy will resume his Arnold Palmer Invitational outing on Friday, Mar. 8, at 10:10 am ET. Collin Morikawa will join him on the first tee. The ace golfer will follow the pairing of Xander Schauffele and Jordan Spieth. Interestingly, event leader Shane Lowry will tee off behind McIlroy at 10:20 am.

McIlroy didn’t have the best of starts to his 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational outing. It's pertinent to note that the 4x Major champion is the second highest-ranked player at the Bay Hill Club and Lodge in Orlando field this weekend.

He came into the event with +900 odds, only second to World No.1 Scottie Scheffler who had +650 odds. Coming off a T24 finish at the Genesis Invitational and a T18 finish at the Cognizant Classic, McIlroy will be eyeing a strong Friday outing.

It will be interesting to see if the European superstar bounces back on the 69-player field, where several including defending champion Kurt Kitayama are struggling.
