- Scottie Scheffler (+300) is the favorite to win the Genesis Invitational.
- I predict Tommy Fleetwood will have a strong week.
The second PGA Tour signature event for 2026 will be the Genesis Invitational from the iconic Riviera Country Club, Feb. 19-22.
Current golf odds at BetMGM have Scottie Scheffler (+300) priced as the prohibitive favorite. Rory McIlroy follows Scheffler at +1200 before Tommy Fleetwood comes in at +1800.
Ludvig Aberg (+4000) is the defending champion, but the event was played at Torrey Pines due to the California wildfires. Hideki Matsuyama (+2000) won the event the last time it was held at Riv.
Let’s dive into the selections. Prices are reflective at time of writing and are subject to movement.
Best Golf Picks for the Genesis Invitational
Tommy Fleetwood Top-10 Finish (+150)
Fleetwood is one of the best ball-strikers on the PGA Tour, which will serve him well this week.
Fleetwood finished T-4 in his PGA Tour debut this season last week at Pebble Beach and has improved each of the four times he’s played Riviera Country Club.
After finishing T-37 in his debut in 2018, he finished T-10 a year ago. Look for Fleetwood to continue the positive progression this week.
And lastly, in his last 11 events worldwide, he’s finished inside the top 10 seven times.
