2022 PLAYER FIELD
2022 field
updated as of January 12, 2022
The Genesis Invitational annually attracts one of the strongest fields in golf. This February will be no different when Max Homa returns to Riviera to defend his title against the PGA TOUR’s best. As the February 11th commitment deadline nears, the world’s top players have already circled The Genesis Invitational on their calendars. Cameron Smith looks to continue his hot start to the year coming off a record-setting performance in Maui. Smith, who finished fourth in 2021, is looking to join Adam Scott, Aaron Baddeley and Robert Allenby as Australian winners at Riv.
Smith and Homa join a star-studded field heading to Riviera this February; many of whom have won on TOUR since the 2021 Genesis Invitational including Tony Finau and Sam Burns. After coming up just short in a playoff against Homa at Riviera, Finau defeated Cam Smith in the first playoff event last season, while Sam Burns won twice in 2021 after holding the 54-hole lead at Riviera last February before finishing third behind Homa and Finau.
