Henley slips back a little
Russell Henley didn’t battle any double-bogeys, but he didn’t counter with many birdies and finished in a tie for 53rd at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Henley had only one birdie against three bogeys for a 2-over 74, and a 2-over tournament.
Henley is in the field of this week’s Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Verda Beach, Fla.
