But Hideki Matsuyama, the winner at Riveria in 2024, comes into this tournament in fine fettle having finished 2nd and T8 in the last two weeks. In 2024, Matsuyama was six shots behind entering the final round, but shot a nine-under 62 to win by three shots.
Someone who has been making a habit recently of charging through a field has been Scottie Scheffler. He finished tied 3rd in the Phoenix Open despite finishing the first round tied in 81st spot and at the Pebble Beach Po Am he was T62 after his first round but rallied to finish tied fourth. His other finish this season was winning the American Express.
The World No.1 has not won this tournament, but has been the top ten in each of the past five years. Could this finally be his year? He's another man in form as he is on a run of 18 top-10 finishes and eight of his past 10 appearances have resulted in a top-five finish.
In this guide, Golf Monthly brings you all the details on how to watch the Genesis Invitational online, on TV, and from anywhere in the world.
Watch Genesis Invitational from anywhere
If you are outside your usual country, you can still access the streaming services you subscribe to, even when you're away from home, thanks to a handy piece of software known as a VPN.
A Virtual Private Network – to give it the full name – can make your devices appear to be in any location, bypassing geo-restrictions so you can watch the things you've signed up for. It's perfect for watching golf from anywhere, and it comes with a host of internet security benefits, too.
Our expert colleagues over at TechRadar have tested loads of VPNs and they reckon NordVPN is the best VPN provider out there right now.
