Genesis Invitational

Greetings, DFS golf fans! Welcome back to the weekly GPP breakdown article! We have one of perhaps the strongest field of the 2022 calendar year to date staring at us with The Genesis Invitational. 130 of the world’s best golfers will tee it up at Riviera Country Club this week, and there are some massive GPP contests out there for this event with the NFL season now in the books. More eyes will be turned to the golf world, and this is a great tournament for that to be happening.

As for the tournament itself, we are dealing with a somewhat smaller field with the invitational setup that Riviera adopted a few years ago. Everything else remains the same with the event on this iconic golf course. We do have plenty of course history to lean on at Riviera. This event has been around for decades, and the course is as tried and tested as any that is used on the PGA Tour. It has certainly withstood the test of time, and it’s a true all-around challenge for the golfers that tee it up here. As is the case with many difficult layouts, the top golfers tend to rise to the top of the leaderboard. Experience tends to matter, as first timers often struggle here. The cut has come in at even par or worse in each of the last nine editions, so this will not be the birdie fest that we often see on the PGA Tour these days.
