If there are “horses for courses” tournaments on the PGA Tour, the Genesis Invitational and Riviera Country Club would seem to be among them.
Witness a nearly four-hour wind delay on Saturday that will require 23 players to clock in a marathon day Sunday.
Leader Sam Burns, 10 under with five holes to play in Round 3, is competing for just the third time, with a MC and a T-23 being his previous results.
Max Homa (seven under with five holes to play) is teeing it up for the fourth time, and does have a T-5 from a year ago to lean back on.
Given the elevated status of the event, the winner earns 550 FedEx Cup points rather than the typical 500 and grabs a three-year exemption on tour instead of the usual two.
Come back shortly after the end of the tournament and we’ll update this with the list of individual player names and their specific earnings.
