German players 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 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 challenging South Course, with its long par-4s, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears more scorable but offers no easy gifts. This mix annually ensures a high-quality field and early competitive excitement.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly intriguing: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are all teeing off. Jäger and Rosenmüller have a chance for an aggressive 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 highlight is Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner will tee off alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a group that will likely attract early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s comeback adds extra star power to an already elite field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament will be broadcast on MagentaTV on Thursday and Friday from 17:30, and on Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 (all times in German time).
