German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback bring excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times here.
As the first tee times are announced for 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 true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears more scoreable but still offers no freebies. This combination annually attracts a high-quality field and early sporting excitement.
From a German perspective, the tournament kickoff is especially interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul will all be competing. Jäger and Rosenmüller have a chance for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces strong international competition right away on the South Course.
Brooks Koepka’s Comeback on the PGA Tour
Another major topic 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 sure to attract early attention from fans and the tournament alike. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already high-caliber field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more thrilling. The tournament will be broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 6:00 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 5:00 p.m. (all times in German local time).
