2025 TORREY PINES SOUTH COURSE TO HOST 2025 GENESIS INVITATIONAL
- Golf tournaments
2025 Genesis Invitational will be played over San Diego’s Torrey Pines’ famed South Course due to Los Angeles’ fire disasters surrounding Riviera Country Club, Pacific Palisades.
The renown South Course has hosted the 2008 and 2021 US Opens plus annually since 1968 it is home to the PGA Tour’s Farmers Insurance Open. Over hilly terrain fronting the blue Pacific, this spectacular championship layout stretches 7802 yds, par-72, with Tiger Woods holding the “Old” course (1999) record 62, “new” course record is 63 by Greg Chalmers (2002)
The PGA Tour, TGR Live, Genesis, and Riviera Country Club hosted by Tiger Woods have committed to feature a variety of relief initiatives focusing on relief for the epic 2025 Los Angeles area fire disasters.
Woods emphasized “We are looking forward to playing another championship caliber golf course this year while Riviera remains the home of the Genesis Invitational, using the tournament to support those affected by the fires in the Los Angeles area. Genesis President Jose Munoz emphasized Genesis looks forward to using this broad platform of 2025 Genesis Invitational to help with meaningful support for relief and recovery efforts. We are most grateful to San Diego and Torrey Pines for hosting the tournament, PGA Commissioner Jay Monahan emphasized how grateful the Tour and all were to San Diego and Torrey Pines for extending the invitation to relocate the tournament. Todd Gloria, San Diego Mayor looks forward to helping our Los Angeles neighbors in recovery from the devasting wildfires.
The Genesis Invitational should return to Riviera Country Club in 2026.
