The gorgeous Pacific Palisades just north of Santa Monica is the home of this week’s Genesis Invitational that boasts a major-esque field. Twelve of the top 15 ranked players in the world will be on hand to try and tackle this difficult George Thomas/William Bell designed course and etch their name on a trophy for Tiger Woods sponsored event. Unfortunately, Woods will not tee it up this week as he continues to recover from a January back surgery, but he is on hand to do his other host duties.
A year ago, Adam Scott outlasted a Sunday pairing with Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy to capture this title at a 35-1 price.
