German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback add excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Check out the tee times.
As the first tee times are announced for the Farmers Insurance Open, all eyes turn 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 known as a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears scorable but offers no giveaways. This blend creates a high-caliber field and early sporting excitement each year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid and Jeremy Paul are set to tee 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 to the PGA Tour
Another major storyline is Brooks Koepka’s comeback on the PGA Tour. The multiple major champion tees off alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a group likely to attract 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 will be broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 17:30 CET and Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 CET.
