German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback add excitement at the PGA Tour kickoff in Torrey Pines. Find out the tee times here.
As the first tee times are announced for the Farmers Insurance Open, all eyes turn to Torrey Pines – one of the iconic venues of the PGA Tour. The demanding South Course, with its long par-4 holes, narrow fairways, and infamous greens, is a true test, while the somewhat shorter North Course appears more scorable but also offers no gifts. This mix ensures a high-class field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament kickoff is especially interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul all compete. Jäger and Rosenmüller have a chance for a strong start on the North Course, while Schmid faces tough 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 winner tees off together with Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a flight likely to draw early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s return adds extra shine to an already high-caliber field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV on Thursday and Friday from 18:00, and Saturday and Sunday from 17:00 (all times in German time zone).
