Tiger Woods’ Annual Golf Event, The Genesis Invitational, to be Held at Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego
The PGA has announced that The Genesis Invitational, the annual golfing event hosted by Tiger Woods, will be moved from Los Angeles to San Diego due to the devastating wildfires that damaged the original course. The event will now be held at the Torrey Pines Golf Course in the La Jolla neighborhood of San Diego, which is also the site of this week’s Farmers Insurance Open.
Tiger Woods expressed his gratitude to the City of San Diego and Torrey Pines for hosting the event, stating that it will be a platform to help fire victims. “We are grateful to the City of San Diego and Torrey Pines for hosting the 2025 Genesis Invitational, and to everyone who has reached out in support of the tournament,” Woods said. “While Riviera remains the home of The Genesis Invitational, we look forward to playing on another championship caliber golf course this year and using the tournament to support those affected by the fires in the Los Angeles area.”
PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan also expressed his gratitude, thanking Woods, TGR Live, and Genesis for their leadership in relocating the event. “Highlighting the resilience of Los Angeles and the need for continued support for the ongoing recovery efforts is what our collective teams are working towards with the playing of The Genesis Invitational at Torrey Pines,” Monahan said.
The Riviera Country Club, where the event was originally supposed to be played, was not destroyed by the fires, but it is dealing with power and water issues. The tournament is being moved out of respect to fire victims. The Genesis Invitational is expected to return to Riviera Country Club in 2026.
