German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback bring excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. See the tee times here.
When the first tee times are announced for the Farmers Insurance Open, attention once again turns to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues on the PGA Tour. The challenging South Course, with its long par-4 holes, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a true test, while the somewhat shorter North Course appears scoreable but also offers no gifts. This combination annually attracts a high-caliber 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 set to compete. Jäger and Rosenmüller have a chance for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces strong international competition on the South Course.
Brooks Koepka’s Comeback on the PGA Tour
Another big topic is Brooks Koepka’s comeback on the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a group likely to draw early tournament and fan focus. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already elite field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more thrilling. The event will be broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 6:00 PM and Saturday and Sunday from 5:00 PM (German time).
