German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback add excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times here.
When the first tee times for the Farmers Insurance Open are announced, all eyes turn once again 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 infamous greens, is a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course seems more scorable but gives no gifts. This combination ensures a high-class field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is especially interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are in the field. Jäger and Rosenmüller have the opportunity 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 story is Brooks Koepka’s comeback on the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off on the South Course alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa – a group likely to draw early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already elite field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more thrilling. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 17:30 CET, and Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 CET.
Tee times are listed in Central European Time.
