German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback create excitement at the PGA Tour opener in Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times.
When the opening tee times are announced at the Farmers Insurance Open, all eyes turn once again to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues on the PGA Tour. The demanding South Course, with its long par-4s, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears more scorable but also offers no easy gifts. This mix annually ensures a high-class field 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 teeing off. Jäger and Rosenmüller have the chance for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces strong international competition right away on the South Course.
Brooks Koepka’s Comeback on the PGA Tour
Another major topic is Brooks Koepka’s comeback on the PGA Tour. The multiple major champ tees off on the South Course alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa – a group expected to draw early tournament and fan focus. Koepka’s return adds star power to an already top-tier field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more compelling. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 5:30 PM and Saturday and Sunday from 6:00 PM (all times in German time).
