Today, February 13, marks the start of The Genesis Invitational 2025, and Golf Monthly is here to bring you all the information on how to watch round one of the tournament wherever you are in the world.

World No.1 Scottie Scheffler finds himself in a mouth-watering group alongside the 2024 Genesis Invitational champion Hideki Matsuyama and the World No.4 Collin Morikawa. Meanwhile, World No.2 Rory McIlroy is teeing off with World No.9 Viktor Hovland and Adam Scott.

There's no Tiger Woods, who is hosting but not playing due to the recent death of his mother, but there is no shortage of star quality in the field at Torrey Pines, with the likes of Jordan Spieth, Tony Finau, and Justin Thomas all in action.

Fans in the US and Canada can enjoy extensive coverage of all those players through the PGA Tour Live multi-feed streaming operation, while TV viewers in the UK and Australia get single-feed coverage from the first ball until the last.

Read on for all the information on how to watch The Genesis Invitational 2025, with details on live streams, TV broadcasts, and timings globally.
