German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback spark excitement at the PGA Tour opener in Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times here.
As the first tee times are announced for the Farmers Insurance Open, all eyes turn once more to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues of the PGA Tour. The challenging South Course, with its long par-4s, narrow fairways and notorious greens, is considered a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course may seem more scorable but offers no giveaways either. This combination ensures a top-class field every year and early sporting excitement.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid and Jeremy Paul are all set to compete. Jäger and Rosenmüller will have the chance for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces tough international competition right from the start on the South Course.
Brooks Koepka’s Comeback on the PGA Tour
Another big focus is the return of Brooks Koepka to the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off together with Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a group that is likely to attract early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s comeback adds extra star power to an already elite field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament will be broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 18:00 and Saturday and Sunday from 17:00 (German time).
