~ The 2024 Genesis Invitational came to a thrilling conclusion on Sunday, February 18th, at The Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif. After four days of intense competition, Japan's Hideki Matsuyama emerged as the champion with a final score of 17-under-par. This marks Matsuyama's ninth career PGA TOUR title and he takes home a grand prize of $4 million along with the 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe.
Matsuyama's victory was not only impressive but record-breaking as well. He set the tournament record for the lowest final-round score at The Riviera Country Club. In addition, he now holds the most PGA TOUR wins by an Asian player, surpassing South Korea's K.J. Choi who has eight wins under his belt.
The 2024 Genesis Invitational was sponsored by Genesis for the eighth consecutive year and featured some of the top golfers in the world. Among them were Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Viktor Hovland, Xander Schauffele, and Wyndham Clark. During the second round of the tournament, Will Zalatoris made a spectacular hole-in-one at the 14th hole, winning him and his caddie each a new Genesis vehicle.
