German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback bring excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Here are the tee times.
When 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-4s, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a true test, while the somewhat shorter North Course appears more scorable but gives no gifts either. This mixture creates a high-class field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are competing. Jäger and Rosenmüller have the chance 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 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 group that is likely to attract early tournament and fan attention. 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 18:00 and on Saturday and Sunday from 17:00 (German time).
The tee times are indicated in German time.
