The Genesis Invitational: Friday tee times, pairings and featured groups for Round 2
The PGA Tour is back in California this week with Tiger Woods among he 70 players in action at the Genesis Invitational at the Riviera Country Club (LA).
The Genesis Invitational is one of the PGA Tour’s eight Signature Events this year and features a halfway cut and $20 million purse, including $4 million for the winner. Tiger Woods is also serving as a tournament host this week.
The tournament is the first of three player-hosted invitationals (along with the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard and Jack Nicklaus’ Memorial Tournament presented by Workday). Woods not only is the host this week, but he also will tee it up and play.
Woods, who will be sporting apparel from his new Sun Day Red apparel brand this week, has not played a PGA Tour event since last April’s Masters, where he made the cut but withdrew before completing the third round because of plantar fasciitis.
With the first round already underway, the organising committee have also decided to announce tee-off times and pairings for Friday’s second round of action.
