PALM BEACH GARDENS — Tiger Woods was reluctant to discuss on Tuesday night how the Genesis Invitational could be impacted by the devastating Los Angeles fires, only saying meetings have been scheduled.

With the PGA Tour on its West Coast Swing, here are three venues Genesis could be considering:The meetings Woods referenced most likely are about finding a venue in such short notice to host the event. Holding it at another Los Angeles-area course — such as Sherwood Country Club or Los Angeles Country Club — could be difficult considering the proximity to the fires for each course. The resources needed with recovery, including hotel rooms, would be many of the same issues if it’s held at Riviera.

With increasing winds and the threat of fires growing Wednesday, Genesis likely will need to be postponed, canceled or moved to another venue. Postponing it would be difficult considering there are no open dates on the schedule. Canceling it is the least likely option.The site of the Farmers Insurance Open Jan. 22-25 could host the Genesis with ample time to swap out signage and make any other adjustments for a signature event.With the WM Phoenix Open scheduled for Feb. 6-9, the week before Genesis, this could be tricky playing back-to-back weeks. Signage would have to changed in two days, the course may not be in the best shape after hosting an event with 120 players, and the grounds would need a lot of work after the rowdiest fans in golf trampled the course for four days.“We have meetings scheduled going forward but as of right now, we’re not really focused on the tournament,” Woods, the Jupiter Island resident, said following his debut match for TGL, the tech-infused, indoor golf league he and Rory McIlroy created. Woods’ Jupiter Links Golf Club lost to Los Angeles GC, 12-1.

Where could the Genesis Invitational be played?

Golfer Tiger Woods encourages the fans at SoFi Center during a golf match between Jupiter Links Golf Club and Los Angeles Golf Club in the TGL, the interactive golf league founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy on January 14, 2025 at Palm Beach State College in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

The likely candidates to host the event would be those already equipped and set up to host a PGA Tour tournament. To get a course ready for a major event within a month without any previous preparations would be difficult. The infrastructure alone is months of work with the construction of grandstands, hospitality suites, etc.

“It’s more about what we can do to help everyone who’s struggling, who’s lost homes and had their lives changed.”Genesis, the second signature event of the PGA Tour season, is scheduled for Feb. 13-16. The Tour sent a memo to its players Thursday saying it’s “premature to discuss the potential impact on the Genesis Invitational.”

With the build-out complete at PGA Tour sites, some changes still would have to be made, primarily with sponsor signage, but nothing close to starting from scratch.

The Stadium Course or Nicklaus Tournament Course at PGA West, La Quinta, Calif.

The American Express is being played in La Quinta this week on three courses, including the Stadium and Nicklaus. With several courses in the area, any conflicts with previously scheduled events could be moved to one of the other courses.

The tournament, which Woods hosts and whose foundation is the beneficiary, is played at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, the site of the largest of the fires. Areas within blocks of the course have seen heavy damage and destruction from the fires that show no sign of letting up.

The Pueblo South Colts co-op boys volleyball team has for the first time ever advanced to the state tournament as regional winners.

The Colts took on Gateway and DSST on Saturday at home after earning the chance to host regionals with a regular season record of 18-5.

The Colts took care of both teams with 3-0 victories.

“It’s a little bit of relief,” coach Ramon Arriaga said after the Colts won their first regional tournament.

“We are just blessed and grateful for this opportunity. These guys have worked hard since the beginning of the year, playing club, open gyms, lifting weights, and they deserve this,” Arriaga said. “They’ve played so well. I’m so proud of these guys. No one’s worked harder than these guys, and we showed it today by representing Pueblo, our town. I couldn’t be more proud and more thankful.”

The key to the victories on Saturday was the emergence of one player — Landen Cordova.

Cordova had never played competitive volleyball until this year, and his growth and development all season long were on display in the regionals.

“You get someone like Landen, he’s a once-in-a-lifetime player, in my opinion,” Arriaga said. “You got someone like Landen who can learn from our seniors, and that’s how he learned how to play the game of volleyball. He’s the most coachable kid, most likable kid, hardest working kid, the first one in the gym, and the last one out of the gym. You get those attributes with the senior leadership that we have, they make him better, and players like our seniors, and Landen make me a way better coach than I am.”

With the regional behind them, the team now focuses on the true test, the state tournament.

“We’re going to celebrate this,” Arriaga said. “We’re going to preserve this is a big historic moment for Pueblo. But our next goal is to go 1-0, on Thursday that’s the first thing we have to do, is get ready to go on Thursday. It’s anyone’s game from here on out. We’re excited to be in the dance, and we’re going to go represent Pueblo very well.”

The state volleyball tournament begins Thursday through Saturday, May 8-10 at Fountain-Fort Carson High School in Fountain.
