Tiger Woods admitted that it was "very difficult" to relocate The Genesis Invitational to Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego in the wake of the wildfires in California.

The Genesis Invitational golf tournament, which earlier announced it would move away from Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades due to the Los Angeles-area wildfires, will be held next month on the South Course of Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego,

The PGA Tour recently announced that Torrey's South Course would replace Riviera Country Club this year after a devastating wildfire in Pacific Palisades, California.

The tournament hosted by Tiger Woods is relocating from Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades due to ongoing wildfires in the Los Angeles area.

San Diego – Harris English finished his 6-under 66 with three straight birdies Friday, charging into a one-shot lead over Andrew Novak at 9-under 207 heading into the final round of the Farmers Insurance Open.

The PGA Tour made it official Friday that the Genesis Invitational will be played at Torrey Pines. Last week, the Tour announced that the Genesis would be moved from Riviera Country Club due to the wildfires that have devastated the Los Angeles area.

The PGA Tour’s decision to move the fire-displaced Genesis Invitational from Los Angeles’ Riviera Country Club to Torrey Pines Golf Course came down to a dizzying list of moving parts. And one big hotel question.

There are at least 60 people from the City of San Diego’s staff who work on staging the PGA Tour’s Farmers Insurance Open at the municipal Torrey Pines golf courses. They toil long hours for months in advance and then all but collapse onto their couches when the final putt drops.

The tour said the $20 million signature event hosted by Tiger Woods would return to Riviera Country Club next year.
