Daniel Bennett makes his PGA TOUR debut at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard after earning an exemption through the Arnold Palmer Cup. He describes the moment he found out on the final green, what the last 48 hours have felt like, and how he’s approaching Bay Hill with “low expectations” — focused on learning, competing, and enjoying the experience.
Bennett also shares insights from a practice round with fellow Texas Longhorn Pierceson Coody, a “pinch me” moment standing near Rory McIlroy, and his experience playing Augusta National as an amateur.
