Tiger Woods' withdrawal from the tournament on Monday afternoon didn't impact the Genesis Invitational odds. Scottie Scheffler remains the betting favorite in the 80-man field teeing it up at Torrey Pines Golf Course outside of San Diego from Thursday to Sunday.

If it feels like the PGA Tour was just at Torrey Pines, it's because it was. Torrey Pines was named as the host of the 2025 Genesis Invitational with the Signature Event relocating from Riviera Country Club due to the wildfires in California.

There will be a stronger field in attendance this week, though one featuring just 80 golfers. Harris English is in the field after winning the Farmers Insurance Open three weeks ago. Scheffler is the consensus favorite in the outright betting market with +425 odds to win.

Who's the favorite to win the Genesis Invitational?

Scottie Scheffler

Best odds: +425 via bet365 | Implied win probability: 19.05%

Scheffler has played two tournaments in 2025, and he didn't win either. Take a moment to process that.

The eight-time winner last year missed most of January due to a hand injury. He returned to play with a T-9 finish in the Signature Event at Pebble Beach, and Scheffler logged a T-25 result in the WM Phoenix Open last week.

Scheffler hasn't played at Torrey Pines since a T-20 finish in the 2022 Farmers Insurance Open. He tied for seventh in the U.S. Open the year before. The veteran missed the cut in both the 2020 and 2021 Farmers.

I'm taking a pass on Scheffler with my golf picks at the low odds of +425, with a winning $10 bet returning a profit of just $42.50. While he's the clear No. 1 player in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR), Scheffler lacks the course history and current form while only recently returning from an injury.

Is Tiger Woods playing the Genesis Invitational?

Tiger initially committed to playing in The Genesis before withdrawing Monday afternoon, citing the recent passing of his mother.

Woods' odds were as long as +25000 via bet365 to win The Genesis Invitational. Those odds represented an implied win probability of just 0.40%. A winning $10 bet at +25000 would've returned a profit of $2,500 if he took the tournament.

Where is the 2025 Genesis Invitational?

The 2025 Genesis Invitational was relocated from Riviera Country Club to Torrey Pines Golf Course (South Course) due to the wildfires in California.

How to bet on golf

When it comes to golf betting, it's essential to understand the various types of wagers available and how to assess player performance effectively.

  • Outright winners
  • Each-way bets (which encompass both a win and a top finish)
  • Head-to-head matchups
  • Proposition bets tailored to specific tournament events, like hole-in-one occurrences or player performances on designated holes

Once you've determined your preferred bet types, conduct thorough research on players, course conditions, recent form, and other pertinent factors that could influence outcomes.

Delve into player statistics, recent tournament performances, course history, and any injuries or changes in form that may impact a player's chances of success.
