Kurt Kitayama, who has missed cuts in 16 of his 25 career PGA Tour events, shot his best score in 69 rounds on the tour Thursday and has a one-shot lead at the Honda Classic
The 2022 Genesis Invitational featuring all ten of the world top ten drew a final round 1.57/2.6 million average viewership on CBS, down significantly from 2021’s 2.24/3.6 million average when Max Homa beat Tony Finau in a playoff in front of no crowd due to COVID restrictions.
The ‘21 Genesis was competing against a Daytona road race. This year though, the 500 syphoned a lot of casual sports fans despite the return of crowds and some stunning visuals from Riviera. The Daytona 500 was Sunday’s most-watched television program of the entire day, drawing an 8.8 million viewer average and 4.4 rating.
Saturday’s Genesis numbers were well up thanks to 2021’s wind-delay.
