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 are announced 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 appears scorable but offers no gifts either. This mix creates a high-quality field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is especially interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are set to tee off. 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 key topic is the comeback of Brooks Koepka on the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off together with Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa on the South Course – a flight that is sure to attract early attention from fans and the tournament. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to the already strong 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.
