Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods feature in a star-studded line-up at the Arnold Palmer Championship this week, with extended coverage from Florida live on Sky Sports.

Half of the world's top 30 feature Bay Hill, where world No 5 Justin Rose is the highest-ranked player in action and former winner Jason Day is also involved.

Woods makes his fourth start in five weeks on the PGA Tour - at an event he has won eight times - and will be aiming to follow on from his recent runner-up finish at the Valspar Championship.

McIlroy finished tied-fourth in last year's event and returns to Bay Hill looking to bounce back from last week's missed cut on the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook.
