— ORLANDO, Fla. - Despite starting out the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational with a 2-stroke lead, it looked as though Martin Laird was out of contention after shooting 5-over through the first 11 holes. But as the rest of the field began to falter, Laird notched three birdies in the next five holes to climb back to the top of the leaderboard at 8-under par. And after Steve Marino moved to 7-under with a birdie on the 18th, Laird notched pressure-packed pars on the final two holes to wrap up his second tour win.
