PGA Tour : Genesis Invitational Leaderboard Tee Times
Patrick Cantlay 64 65 70 -14 still leads, but now just by two shots from his friend and Ryder Cup partner Xander Schauffele 70 66 65 -12 and stringbean Will Zalatoris 66 70 65 -12 as they head into Sunday at this version of the $20,000,000 Genesis Invitational with and LIV like $4,000,000 to the winner.
Cantlay grew up in the area, went to school at UCLA so this is his home course and it's his to win as he starts 2 shots clear of his nearest rivals.
On a cool, cloudy California Saturday where it seemed more people were talking about Tiger having influenza than golf the Canadian contingent who still have four in the T10 but not contending will look for a strong Sunday finish to improve their life savings.
Canadians
Corey Conners T7 70 65 70 -8
Adam Svensson T10 67 72 67 -7
Adam Hadwin T10 69 70 67 -7
Mac Hughes T10 69 65 72 -7
Nick Taylor T28 70 69 70 -4
As Riviera dried out and firmed up, she maintained her reputation as a premier test of golf, there were only 3 scores of 65 Schauffele, Zalatoris and Harris English who are in the top 5, with the average score under par at 69.5.
With a sunny cool 60*f calm 7mph breeze ideal Sunday for scoring ahead, and three days of rain heading for southern California, somebody is going to shoot 63, the question is will it be one of the leaders or who?
The biggest names Scheffler -5, Rory -4, Hovland -4, Fleetwood -4 are all out of it.
Two years ago when LIV forced the PGA Tour to put up these $20m dollar events we all gasped, now its not even in the conversation anymore, except for the 70 guys playing on Sunday...and their wives..
