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

Rory McIlroy continued his struggles at the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational on Friday.

The Northern Irishman carded in a 2 under 70 and ended Day 2 at T33. The World No.2 golfer shared the position with the likes of Jordan Spieth, Lucas Glover, Chris Kirk, Eric Cole and Justin Lower.

McIlroy will resume his Arnold Palmer Invitational outing on Saturday, Mar. 9, at 10:50 am ET. Spieth will join him on the first tee. The ace golfer will follow the pairing of Justin Lower and Tom Hoge.

Having started the event as one of the top favorites, the 34-year-old will be eyeing a strong round 3 to get back in the top half of the leaderboard at Bay Hill. For the unversed, McIlroy shot 73 in the opening round of the competition.

Interestingly, the golfer stayed back on the course instead of heading home as dusk fell on Thursday. The former PGA Tour board member was seen practicing with Brad Faxon, an eight-time Tour winner and occasional putting instructor.

The extra classes seemed to work well, as McIlroy bettered his position on Friday. However, the Irishman will be looking to get more out of the last two rounds.

Coming off a T10 finish at the Cognizant Classic, the 4x Major winner will want nothing less than a podium finish this weekend.
