German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback create excitement at the PGA Tour opener in Torrey Pines. Here are the tee times.
When the first tee times are called at the Farmers Insurance Open, 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-4 holes, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, is a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course, although seemingly more scorable, also offers no easy rewards. This mix ensures every year a high-class starting field and early sporting excitement.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul will be 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 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 flight that is likely to draw early attention from both the tournament and fans. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already high-profile field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more thrilling. The tournament is broadcast on MagentaTV on Thursday and Friday from 17:30 CET and on Saturday and Sunday from 18:00 CET.
