The Genesis Invitational is back this week. The third signature event on the 2024 PGA Tour schedule is set to tee off on Thursday, February 15 at the Riviera Country Club near Los Angeles. The four-day event will see a 71-player field compete for the $20,000,000 prize purse.

The Genesis Invitational will mark Tiger Woods’ season debut. The 15x Major winner will join the likes of Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Viktor Hovland at the event. Notably, the elevated event field will feature 41 of the top 50 in the world and 28 of the top 30 players from the 2022-23 FedEx Cup standings.

Despite the stacked field, the top-ranked golfers top this weekend's odds list. World No.1 Scheffler is the outright favorite to win The Genesis Invitational 2024. The 27-year-old, who failed to complete a three-peat last week at the WM Phoenix Open, comes into the Los Angeles event with 7-1, according to SportsLine.
