German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback add excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times.
When the first tee times of 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 demanding South Course, with its long par-4 holes, narrow fairways and notorious greens, is a true test of skill, while the slightly shorter North Course seems more scorable but still offers no gifts. This combination ensures a high-quality field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament kickoff is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid and Jeremy Paul will be teeing off. 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 topic is Brooks Koepka’s comeback on the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off with Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course— a flight likely to draw early tournament and fan focus. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to the already high-caliber field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament will be broadcast on MagentaTV on Thursday and Friday from 17:30 and Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 CET.
All tee times are given in Central European Time.
