2026 Genesis Invitational: PGA Tour timetable and viewing options on ESPN
A year following wildfires that resulted in approximately $250 billion in damages in Southern California, the PGA Tour returns to Pacific Palisades this week for the 100th edition of the Genesis Invitational.
The prestigious tournament is back at its original venue, the Riviera Country Club, after being moved to Torrey Pines Golf Course near San Diego in 2025. The previous two champions, Ludvig Åberg (2025) and Hideki Matsuyama (2024), will be present for what promises to be another thrilling four days of golf, following Collin Morikawa’s exciting victory on Sunday at Pebble Beach.
A select group of 72 of the top players globally will compete for a portion of the $20 million prize pool, with the champion receiving $4 million.
