Torrey Pines is the replacement site for the Genesis Invitational. The Tiger Woods-hosted signature event typically is held at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles.

The PGA Tour announced Friday that next month’s Genesis Invitational, which traditionally has been played at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California, will be moved to Torrey Pines outside San Diego because of the fires that have ravaged the Los Angeles area.

Because of the tragic wildfires affecting Los Angeles, the PGA Tour has moved the Genesis Invitational to San Diego.

Tiger Woods says moving the Genesis Invitational from fire-ravaged Pacific Palisades to Torrey Pines will help 'raise more money for all the losses that have incurred.'

The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am begins on Thursday in California. Here are 5 players our expert loves — and why he thinks you should too.

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The angst over pace of play in golf has been around for ages. One overlooked example is a memo from Joe Dey, the USGA executive director who in 1950 issued a notice to players when they registered for the U.S. Open at Merion.

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.

Rory McIlroy will be making his PGA Tour season debut this week, but Pebble Beach is not the golf course to deploy him. Pebble is one of the least driver-heavy golf courses on the PGA Tour, and it consistently mitigates McIlroy’s advantage off the tee, which properly explains his porous 66th-place finish at this event last year.

Tiger Woods said the goal was to keep the Genesis Invitational on or near the West Coast. It was moved to Torrey Pines outside of San Diego.

Dottie Pepper said the slow pace of play in golf has "been gnawing at me for a while," and added that she hopes her on-air complaint last weekend serves as a springboard for serious change.
