German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback add excitement to the PGA Tour kickoff at Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times here.
As the first tee times are announced at the Farmers Insurance Open, attention once again turns to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues on the PGA Tour. The demanding South Course, with its long par-4 holes, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a real test, while the somewhat shorter North Course, although seemingly more manageable, offers no giveaways. This blend ensures a high-caliber field and early sporting excitement each year.
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 the opportunity 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 major highlight is the comeback of Brooks Koepka on the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner 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 extra star power to an already impressive field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV on Thursday and Friday from 6 pm and on Saturday and Sunday from 5 pm CET.
