Sun Feb 16 22:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Rodgers Leads at Relocated Genesis Invitational

**SAN DIEGO, CA** – Patrick Rodgers holds a one-stroke lead heading into the final round of The Genesis Invitational, after the tournament was relocated to Torrey Pines’ South Course due to Southern California wildfires. Originally scheduled for Riviera Country Club, the event was moved to ensure player and spectator safety.

Rodgers shot a 68 on Saturday, putting him at 7-under par. He’s closely pursued by Denny McCarthy, one stroke behind, while Ludvig Åberg sits at 6-under after a memorable hole-in-one on the iconic third hole, earning him a $10,000 prize for the tournament’s “Birdies for Good” initiative supporting wildfire relief efforts.

Notable absences from the final round include big names like Max Homa and Jordan Spieth, who missed the cut. While favorites Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy faltered, Åberg remains a contender.

Tiger Woods will be absent from the final round of The Genesis Invitational but is set to return to action next week in a TGL match.

Fans can follow the final round via PGA TOUR LIVE on ESPN+, PGA TOUR Radio on SiriusXM, or free audio at PGATOUR.com/liveaudio. The tournament features several key par-3 holes: 3, 8, 11, and 16.
