Bryson DeChambeau is the defending champion having won the Arnold Palmer Invitational trophy last year after he shot a final round one-under 71.
This year's field is headlined by the likes of Sergio Garcia, Patrick Reed, Tom Hoge, Rory McIlroy, Viktor Hovland, Seppe Straka and more.
It will be a 120-player field and the event is scheduled to be played out over four days, with this event marking the 18th tournament of the 2021-22 PGA Tour schedule.
Former winners of Arnold Palmer Invitational Tyrrell Hatton and Marc Leishman will also be part of the field as they look to win the competition for the second time in their careers.

“It’s a tough decision right now,’’ DeChambeau said as he announced his withdrawal from the 2022 Arnold Palmer Invitational.
“I have a lot of work to do to get everything back in order for this week. I feel it’s too short of a time to get back to 100 per cent capacity.
"I don’t want to go out there and hurt myself even more. I don’t want to come back early and have to take more time off.’’
Tiger Woods is the most successful golfer in the history of the Arnold Palmer Invitational having won the tournament a record eight times.
