McIlroy first played the Arnold Palmer Invitational three years ago , and Palmer teared up at dinner when he asked McIlroy if there was anything he needed and received this reply: “Mr. “I wish he would have been at the top of the hill to shake my hand when I came off the 18th green there,” McIlroy said. It was the type of putt the gallery has seen Woods make to win in 2001, 2008 and 2009. So it was fun to watch him play.”Stenson lost a third chance in four years to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational. “I kept saying I didn’t need a win going into Augusta to feel like I had a chance,” McIlroy said.
