Every shot from Hideki Matsuyama’s win at The 2024 Genesis Invitational

Every shot from Hideki Matsuyama’s win at The 2024 Genesis Invitational

    Written by Staff

    The third Signature Event of the PGA TOUR season is set for next week at The Genesis Invitational, hosted by Tiger Woods. Torrey Pines South Course will serve as host after it was announced Jan. 16 that the tournament would be relocated from The Riviera Country Club due to the ongoing natural disaster in Greater Los Angeles and out of respect for those affected. The Genesis Invitational is expected to return to The Riviera Country Club in 2026.

    Hideki Matsuyama returns to defend his win from 2024 with all of the game's top players teeing it up in San Diego for the third Signature Event of the season.

    The Signature Events will bring together the game’s top players, pitting them on historic courses to play for elevated purses and FedExCup points.

    The PGA TOUR uses a standardized system for determining event fields, based on the current season’s Priority Ranking while also including additional exemption and qualifying categories.

    Field sizes can vary by event, as can the number of event-specific exemptions. Fully exempt PGA TOUR members are guaranteed entry into all Full-Field Events, with various conditional categories subject to periodic reshuffles based upon FedExCup Points accrued throughout the season. Categories with "reshuffle" notation indicate that a reshuffle period has occurred. Note: An additional year of eligibility was granted to some categories because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
