The PGA Tour returns to Riviera Country Club, the classic course that has hosted the Los Angeles Open since 1929. The course also hosted the cast and crew of The Caddy (see above) during the shooting of this less-than-classic movie in 1953.Several interesting items of note as the players start teeing off this morning.
- Retief Goosen is playing this week, having remained on the sidelines following complications from laser eye surgery in January.
- Mike Weir is one of the Tour Review's players to watch this week. He loves this course, having won in 2003 and 2004. His game seems to be rebounding after a poor 2007.
- Luke Donald makes his American debut this week. Riviera suits his game (short and straight) very well and he has been playing decently overseas thus far in 2008.
- Anthony Kim is a southern California native and he finished strong(T-9) at last year's Nissan Open.
