Okay, so I wanted to catch up on the Arnold Palmer Invitational from 2023. It feels like ages ago, but I like keeping track of these things, sort of a personal log for myself.

Finding the Leaderboard
First thing I did was just hop online. Didn’t use any fancy sports app this time, just a plain old web search. Typed something simple like “Arnold Palmer Invitational 2023 results” or “leaderboard 2023 Arnold Palmer”. Took a couple of clicks, you know how it is, sometimes the first result isn’t quite what you need.
Found a few sites listing the scores. I scrolled through one, looked pretty standard. It showed the player names, their scores to par, round scores, and the final position.
Checking Out the Scores
Right away, I was looking for the top guys. I remember hearing there was some drama near the end. Scrolling down the list, I saw Kurt Kitayama ended up winning it. Yeah, that name rings a bell now. His score was pretty solid, under par for the tournament.
Then I looked for other big names. Saw guys like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler up there, they usually are. The leaderboard showed how tight it was at the top. A few strokes separated a bunch of players.
- Checked the final round scores specifically. Always interesting to see who finished strong.
- Noticed the cut line details too, who made it to the weekend and who didn’t. That’s always rough for the players who miss it.
I remember seeing something about the field size too. It wasn’t like, a massive open field. Looked like around 120 players got invited. Makes sense, it’s an invitational, right? They have criteria, like past winners of this tournament, or winners of the big ones, the majors, and The Players Championship from recent years. Keeps the quality high, I guess.

Final Thoughts
Overall, pretty straightforward process. Just searching and reading the list. The leaderboard itself was clear enough, gave me the basic info I needed: who won, who contended, and the final scores. It’s always cool to look back at these events, even if it’s just checking the final standings. Helps me keep a mental map of the golf season.
