The PGA Tour will return to the San Diego area in a few weeks to contest one of the biggest events of the season

The Genesis Invitational will be held this year at Torrey Pines in San Diego rather than Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California, because of the recent wildfires in the Los Angeles area.

The PGA Tour made it official Friday that the Genesis Invitational will be played at Torrey Pines. Last week, the Tour announced that the Genesis would be moved from Riviera Country Club due to the wildfires that have devastated the Los Angeles area.

It’s official: The PGA Tour’s Genesis Invitational will move to Torrey Pines Golf Course. The tournament at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles, hosted by golf icon Tiger Woods, was displaced because of the devastating fires in Pacific Palisades.

The PGA Tour announced Friday that next month’s Genesis Invitational, which traditionally has been played at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif., will be moved to Torrey Pines outside San Diego because of the fires that have ravaged the Los Angeles area.

Golfweek has learned that the PGA Tour is in the final stages of negotiations to move the 2025 Genesis Invitational to Torrey Pines in La Jolla.

It isn’t often — or ever — that PGA Tour players compete on the same course twice in the same year, let alone in 26 days
