It should come as no surprise that Scottie Scheffler is the favorite. He's basically been the favorite for every event this season, and while he's not winning every single time, he is playing extremely well.

Scheffler faces steep competition though. It's a massive field with plenty of great players like Rory McIlroy (+1000), Viktor Hovland (+1400), Xander Schauffele (+1600), Justin Thomas (+1600), Collin Morikawa (+1600), Patrick Cantlay (+1800), Max Homa (+1800) and Ludvig Aberg (+1800).

Who will win the Genesis Invitational?

Tiger Woods, in his official return to the PGA Tour, is a bit of a longshot. Only 12 golfers have lower odds than he does, so Las Vegas isn't convinced that he can turn back the clock on this one.
