German starters and Brooks Koepka’s comeback bring excitement to the PGA Tour opener at Torrey Pines. Here are the tee times.
At the Farmers Insurance Open, the first tee times once again direct attention 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 considered a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears scorable but offers no giveaways. This blend creates a high-quality field and early competitive excitement each year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are all in the field. 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 storyline 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 group likely to draw early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already prestigious 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.
