Next month’s Genesis Invitational was scheduled to be played at Riviera Country Club in the Pacific Palisades, but due to the recent wildfires, the PGA announced on Thursday it will be moved. The new venue is still to be determined for the February 13-16 event.
“The PGA TOUR’s focus continues to be on the safety and well-being of those affected by the unprecedented natural disaster in Greater Los Angeles,” the Tour said in a statement. “We are grateful for the life-saving efforts of first responders and the tireless work being done to put an end to the tragic wildfires.”
This is just the latest of several impacts on sporting events in the last week-plus, as the fires have ravaged the Palisades in particular. The Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers both had games postponed last week, and the Los Angeles Rams had their wild-card home game against the Minnesota Vikings moved to Glendale, Arizona.
