2024 Champion: Scottie Scheffler

“It’s really special. Mr. Palmer meant a lot to me, and a lot to us as professional golfers and the game of golf, so it’s very special to sit here and wear his red sweater again, and I am very proud to be the champion of his tournament.”

Arnold Palmer Cup

The Arnold Palmer Cup is a Ryder Cup-style tournament featuring the top male and female collegiate golfers from the United States against a team of Internationals.

The event began at the Bay Hill Club & Lodge, Orlando FL in 1997 and has been staged each year alternately in Europe and the USA.

Selection of the Arnold Palmer Cup representative in the Arnold Palmer Invitational Presented by Mastercard is determined by a vote of 48 Arnold Palmer Cup participants prior to the competition. The players select a member from each team who they think best represents the “Arnold Palmer Legacy,” that is, the values that Arnold Palmer has exhibited during his legendary career. The top vote-getter from the winning team will earn the invitation.
