How to watch Tiger Woods in Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club
Tiger Woods is back in a non-major PGA Tour event for the first time in several years, and it could be an emotional return.

He has participated in a handful of majors since the crash, most recently missing the cut at the Open Championship last July. Now, hes eager to get on the course for an actual event:
Woods will face some strong competition at the Genesis Open. The field features 19 of the top 20 players in the Official World Golf Ranking, including No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, No. 2 Rory McIlroy and No. 3 Jon Rahm.
