The PGA Tour is headed for another tournament - the Genesis Invitational, scheduled to take place from February 15 to 18, 2024. The professional golf tournament is played annually at the Riviera Country Club.
The tournament has seen some of the best golfers not only tee off at the tournament but also win the event. Last year, Jon Rahm, who recently joined the LIV league, won the tournament by a two-stroke margin against Max Homa.
Before that, Chilean professional golfer Joaquín Niemann had won the event in 2022. He beat Collin Morikawa and Cameron Young by a two-stroke margin. Furthermore, Bubba Watson has earned victories three times in the last ten years.
