Russell Henley, in his first PGA event as a rookie, delivers record performance
Russell Henley has delivered big moments before, just not to this degree, and certainly not on this kind of a stage.
www.foxnews.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
-
Russell Henley won the Arnold Palmer Invitational on March 9–10, 2025, marking his fifth PGA Tour victory and lifting him into the top echelons of the world rankings. The win came with an 11-under total and included a dramatic finish, including a key late eagle and birdies to surge past the field.

-
The Arnold Palmer Invitational victory in 2025 was Henley’s first TOUR win since a prior title in 2022, reinforcing a notable resurgence and positioning him among potential Ryder Cup selections at the time. He moved to No. 7 in the World Golf Ranking after the win.[2]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest headlines from current outlets or summarize how his 2025 win affected his season through today.
Would you like a concise timeline of Henley’s wins and a quick comparison of his 2025 season to prior years? If so, I can compile that with brief citations.
