The U.S. PGA Tour Genesis Invitational hosting course will be changed due to a large forest fire in Los Angeles (LA).

The PGA Tour announced on the 17th that "the Genesis Invitational, which was scheduled to be held at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California, USA for four days from February 14, will be held at another location."
Riviera Country Club did not suffer any damage from the fire, but the Palisades area, where the golf course is located, was reportedly damaged by burning houses.

"We are focusing on the safety and welfare of those affected by the unprecedented natural disaster in Los Angeles," the PGA Tour said. "We thank the paramedics for their efforts." The PGA Tour will inform the venue and venue of the new event later.

The competition is hosted by the Tiger Woods Foundation. Woods recently said, "We are focusing on what we can do to help people who have lost their home and changed their lives," adding, "We are not focusing on the tournament right now."
