German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback create excitement at the PGA Tour opener in Torrey Pines. Find out the tee times here.
When the first tee times of the Farmers Insurance Open are announced, attention turns once again to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues on the PGA Tour. The challenging 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 offers no giveaways either. This mix ensures a high-quality field and early sporting tension every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament kickoff is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul tee off. Jäger and Rosenmüller have a chance for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces strong international competition directly 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 champion tees off alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a group likely to attract early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s return adds star power to the already high-caliber field and makes the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 17:30 and Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 (all times in CET).
