The last day of the 2015 Arnold Palmer Invitational came to a close on Sunday, with Matt Every successfully defending his crown.
Arnold Palmer: 'Tiger Woods Has to Regain Confidence'
Henrik Stenson finished one stroke back. Below is recap of the final day's events (via PGA Tour).
What They're Saying
Matt Every: "The first [win], you don't know if it's going to happen because it never happened before. After I won that [last year], I played poorly right after for a while and then I decided to kind of make some changes. This is what's going to happen. I'm going to do it the right way. When it comes, it's going to be awesome. I just found a way today [Sunday]. Today, it was emotional. The first one you worked your whole life for. The second one, I worked like six months."
Sean Foley: "From a sensory standpoint, he [Every] was crossing himself up. I've worked with a lot of players who could never make that change because it would look too scary to them."
Henrik Stenson: "I didn't really have much time to look at my putt and rushed that one a little bit, the first one and three-putted. Morgan [Hoffmann] got a bad time on his second shot on 16 and again I kind of rushed my putting on 16 and three-putted that one. That's really what cost me the tournament, those two three-putts on 15 and 16.
World No. 1 Update
Rory McIlroy failed to impress at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. After a moving to within one of the lead, the 25-year-old closed with a sub-par 70 that included six missed putts from inside 10 feet.
