Collin Morikawa birdies final hole for a 1-shot lead at Bay Hill

ORLANDO, Fla. >> Collin Morikawa made a 12-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole Saturday on a baked out Bay Hill course for a 5-under 67, giving him a one-shot lead in the Arnold Palmer Invitational and a chance to win for the first time in 17 months.

Russell Henley holed a long bunker shot for birdie on the opening hole, ran off four in a row to start the back nine and had a 67 to finish one shot behind. Corey Conners of Canada missed the 18th fairway, chipped out and made bogey for a 69 and was two back.

Even without much wind and occasional cloud cover, the heat and three days of sun brought a yellow shine to fairways and greens. Birdie putts from a reasonable range rolled out past the hole sometimes 8 feet or more away.

Shane Lowry, the 36-hole leader, got a taste of that at end. His tee shot on the 18th ran so far that only the collar of the rough kept it from rolling out into the water. He had a birdie chance just inside 25 feet and watched that roll 7 feet by the hole.

Ravens agree to a new contract with Pro Bowl LT Ronnie Stanley before free agency begins

OWINGS MILLS, Md. >> Ronnie Stanley is returning to the Baltimore Ravens after the team announced a new deal with the veteran left tackle Saturday.

The Ravens did not announce contract terms, but the move takes one of the top offensive linemen off the market before the start of free agency next week. Stanley made the Pro Bowl last season. He has played nine years in the NFL, all with Baltimore.

Last season was Stanley’s first without missing a game. He appeared in only seven games in two seasons from 2020-21 because of ankle problems and struggled to regain the form that made him an All-Pro in 2019. But in 2024, he was a solid part of an offensive line that helped Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry excel.
