Alongside Stephan Jäger and Matti Schmid, two more German pros qualified Monday for the Farmers Insurance Open.

At the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open, the main topic is Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour. But beyond the stars, a lot is at stake for all players, some even before the tournament officially starts.

PGA Tour Monday Qualifier

Sixty players competed for four starting spots at the famous Torrey Pines Golf Course in the Monday Qualifier, held at the Mission Viejo Country Club. Among those who succeeded were two German players. Thomas Rosenmüller tied for first place with Swedish player Henrik Norlander, both finishing seven under par. Norlander impressed with five consecutive birdies on the back nine, while Rosenmüller spread his nine stroke gains over the entire round. After starting on hole 10, Rosenmüller stumbled with two bogeys on holes 7 and 9 but remained at the top. Key was Rosenmüller’s reliable conversion of the par-5 holes into birdies to secure the leading position.

Sharing third place at five under par were Americans Hunter Logan and Jeremy Paul, who also qualified for the Farmers Insurance Open. Paul started on hole 10 and played a remarkable back nine with an eagle on hole 1, two birdies and no bogeys. Thus, Rosenmüller and Paul join the German contingent in Torrey Pines.

In the days leading up to the tournament, several changes occurred in the Farmers Insurance Open field. Brian Campbell, Jimmy Stanger, Nico Echavarria, Patton Kizzire and Michael Kim withdrew, opening spots for Matt Kuchar, Justin Lower, Taylor Moore, Joel Dahmen and Sam Ryder. Also, the field size was expanded to 147 players following Brooks Koepka’s participation, allowing Jackson Suber and Lanto Griffin to join as well.
