With Riviera Country Club residing in Pacific Palisades, the PGA Tour is coming up with alternative options for next month’s Genesis Invitational.

The PGA Tour may be forced to relocate the Genesis Invitational due to the fires in Los Angeles, California. The Tour informed members that it is monitoring the situation in Pacific Palisades, where the Riviera Country Club is located, but it has not made an official decision regarding the status of the event.

The PGA Tour has a back-up plan if they need to move Tiger Woods' Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club amid the Los Angeles wildfires

A large wildfire in Southern California is threatening a PGA Tour venue. Riviera Country Club, the site of next month's Genesis Invitational hosted by Tiger Woods, is in the mandatory evacuation zone for the Pacific Palisades fire,

The wildfires spread across Los Angeles and forced nearly a quarter of a million residents to evacuate their residences, as of Thursday (January 9).

The Palisades is home to the Riviera Country Club, home of the tour’s Genesis Invitational (formerly known as the Los Angeles Open), which Tiger Woods now hosts. The course and club are reportedly fine, although the neighborhood surrounding the property has been affected. The event is scheduled for Feb. 13-16.

Genesis Invitational, hosted by Tiger Woods, is scheduled for Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Feb. 13 to 16.

Riviera Country Club hasn't been directly affected by the Palisades fire, but the PGA Tour has yet to commit to the Genesis Invitational being played there from Feb. 13-16.

The PGA Tour has not yet decided if it will move next month's Genesis Invitational from Riviera Country Club due to the Los Angeles wildfires. The post PGA Tour monitoring Los Angeles fires with Riviera hosting Genesis Invitational next month appeared first on Golf.
