Scottie Scheffler became the first world No 1 to win at Bay Hill since 2009 as he carded a six under 66 to secure a commanding victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

After an apparently effortless bogey-free front nine featuring two birdies, Scheffler ramped things up and, after hitting seven out of nine of the first fairways, he clinched birdies on the 10th and 11th to solidify his lead.
