The 2020 Genesis Invitational hosts a field of 120 golfers this week in Pacific Palisades Calif. Nine of the top-10 golfers from the Official World Golf Ranking are among them, making this the top PGA Tour event of the season thus far. Below, we’ll analyze the golf betting odds, while making our picks to win the 2020 Genesis Invitational.

The key stats for the 7,322-yard, par-71 Riviera Country Club are:

Genesis Invitational – Tier 1

Odds provided by BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 9 p.m. ET.

Brooks Koepka (+2000)

There isn’t likely to be anyone in the field this week more motivated than Koepka, who gave up the No. 1 spot in the OWGR to Rory McIlroy Monday morning. With the bump in the rankings, Koepka’s outright odds to win a tournament plummeted. By contrast, Koepka is +900 to win the Masters, +1000 to win the Open Championship, +800 for the US Open and +800 for the PGA Championship.

While he missed the cut in 2017 (his only appearance in the last five years), this is nearly a major-caliber field. Koepka remains second in the OWGR but he’s seventh by the odds this week.

Adam Scott (+3000)

Scott ranks third in this field in Strokes Gained at Riviera among those with a minimum of 10 rounds played on the course. Ranked 14th in the world, he’s coming off a win at the Australian PGA Championship in late December and is well rested. He looks to become the third Aussie to win on the PGA Tour in 2020 behind Marc Leishman and Cameron Smith.

Genesis Invitational – Tier 2

Collin Morikawa (+4500)

Morikawa has never participated in this event, but he offers adequate value after routinely being priced among the favorites in the weaker early-season events. He still hasn’t missed a cut as a professional, and he ranks 18th by the overall stat model as a great ball striker.

Kevin Na (+6600)

Na tied for 33rd last year following a co-runner-up finish in 2018 and a T-4 in 2017. He rebounded from a missed cut at the Waste Management Phoenix Open to tie for 14th last week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He’s one of the best in the elite field in SG: Around the Green.

Genesis Invitational – Longshots

Jason Kokrak (+10000)

Though he lacks the winning pedigree of many of those in the field, Kokrak has done well at Riviera. He has made the cut each of the last five years at this event and was a co-runner-up in 2016. He ranks sixth in the field in total strokes gained over that those five appearances.

Francesco Molinari (+12500)

Yes, this is the same Francesco Molinari as the 2018 Open Champion. He enters the week ranked 24th by the OWGR, but he was inside the top 10 as recently as September. He’s coming off missed cuts at the Farmers Insurance Open and The American Express, but these odds are laughable for one of the best iron players in the world.

With nine of the world’s top ten golfers set to tee it up in the PacificPalisades, the field at the 2020 Genesis Invitational is absolutely stacked.

I’m talking comparable to any major or WGC event.

Brooks Koepka isn’t even among the top-six betting favorites to win the golftournament. World beaters like Justin Rose and Patrick Reed can be backed at anincredibly salivating price (+4000).

Tiger and Rory are both gracing us with their presence, the weather should beideal, and the layout atRiviera Country Club is among the finest in all of golf.

Are you ready to bet on this week’s PGA Tour event or what?

Let’s get started with the Genesis Invitational odds and my prediction forthe winner.

When studying the pricing from one of thebest golf bettingsites, there’s a lot to be excited about. Newly crowned world #1 RoryMcIlroy leads the way on the heels of four consecutive top-4 showings,highlighted by his playoff victory over Xander Schauffele in Shanghai.

Considering Rory has cracked the top 10 in nine of his last eleven startsworldwide, there seem to be few scenarios of him not getting into contentionthis week in SoCal.

J.B. Holmes shot 14-under par and outlasted a star-studded leaderboard thatincluded Justin Thomas (runner-up) and Rory McIlroy (T-4^th). AdamScott, Hideki Matsuyama, Dustin Johnson, and Jon Rahm all landed inside the top10 as well.

Thomas began the final round with a four-stroke lead and birdied the firsthole right out of the gates, but he produced five bogeys and a double over hisnext 13 holes and eventually came up a shot short.

Tiger Woods got it to 10-under through seven holes on Sunday and was withinstriking distance, but the “Big Cat” stumbled down the stretch and wound up in atie for 15^th.

Horses for Courses

When it comes to Riviera Country Club — one of the most pristine venues inthe annual PGA Tour rotation — there are some players who we just expect to playwell here. For example, Bubba Watson has won this event threetimes (2014, 2016, 2018) and has shown terrific form as of late.

Phil Mickelson is coming off a third-place finish at PebbleBeach and is looking for his third trophy at this event. Phil lost in a playoffto Charles Howell III here in 2007 before emerging as the champ in both 2008 and2009.

Dustin Johnson has consistently shredded this place up,dating back to 2014, but more on DJ in a bit.

As far as an individual who hasn’t fared as well at “Riv” compared to othertracks around the globe, Tiger Woods is still searching for his maiden victoryat the Genesis Invitational after all these years. Those wonderingwhen Tiger will win his 83^rd event and officially break SamSnead’s record might have to wait a little bit longer.

With so many top players in the field and playing well, it’s not easynarrowing it down to a single choice. Then again, it’s a little bit easier onceyou examine Dustin Johnson’s track record at the PGA Tour stop nestled inbetween Brentwood and Santa Monica.

I should point out DJ’s 16^th-place finish at the 2018 GenesisInvitational because that’s the only time in the last six years that he didn’ttally a top 10.

Genesis Golf Tournament 2020 Odds

The 35-year-old South Carolina native also finished 9^th here in2009, 3^rd in 2010, and 4^th in 2012.

Now that we’re clear on Dustin Johnson’s affinity for this golf course, let’stake a look at what kind of form he’s in. Johnson has played three times in2020.

He placed 7^th in Maui and 2^nd in Saudi Arabia, and hewas tied for 7^th after 54 holes last week in Pebble Beach.

I can’t be certain if Dustin’s wand will be of the blade or mallet varietywhen he shows up on Thursday, but I can be sure that he’ll be standing on thefirst tee beaming with confidence. After seeing Johnson installed at +1200 towin the Genesis Invitational at a lot of the top PGA Tour sportsbooks online, Iquickly pounced when I saw him at +1400 atthe BetOnlinesportsbook.
