The PGA TOUR continues on the West Coast this week for the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines Golf Club. For the third-straight year, this event will be played from Wednesday through Saturday. Max Homa returns this week to defend his title. Alongside winning the Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa in November, Homa has not finished worse than T21 since missing the cut at the Travelers Championship last June. Xander Schauffele will also be in California this week. He’s making his ninth start in San Diego where his best finish was T2, five shots off the winner in 2021. The American claimed T10 at The Sentry and T3 last week at The American Express to start the new season. Australian Min Woo Lee will also be in California this week after closing out 2023 winning twice in his last five events worldwide, including victories in Macau and Australia. He’ll be looking to improve on the T21 he managed last week at The American Express. Others to look out for are Collin Morikawa, Patrick Cantlay and Sungjae Im.

He really struggled with the driver yesterday only hitting four Fairways there’s that slider this one should be really good here Kurt got it out there too that is in great shape pavon his second wasting no time that from 156 oh yeah right at it again they are just taking advantage of that front

Right hole location as a member of the PGA Tour that was at Sony top 10 there there you go he’s poted great I mentioned that earlier just uh that first hole looked odd but since uh the first couple rounds here at the South course he’s puted really really well

He’s got a beautiful setup with the putter there’s no doubt about it especially with this whole location in that bowl down there now this one needs to cut I’ll left H couple of good bounces and that turns out really well ball below his feet but he’ll be glad to have it in the

Fairway second here at six a rookie on the PGA tour this season the Frenchman trying to Rally after losing a shot on the opening hole and that one beautifully played and an eagle opportunity trying to pick up two shots looks like it’ll lead to birdie though his second was at the corala

Spana championship in the Dominican Republic this past season and also at the Genesis Scottish open it is so tough and can jump up and bite you at any point from here on out we saw drie come unstuck at 18 yesterday and walk away with the double so he just needs to hang

In there keep putting one foot in front of the other as pavon hits a brilliant shot there at the PA three Fe now it’s all going to be about the putter Santa at eight Santa cut for pav and has made a lot of good things happen on the par FES seven under for

The week can he control the spin oh yes he can he is hitting the shots for our leader and now pone has just this little one he was Ted the game by his mother beatric who’s a teaching professional in Bordeaux and he’s got a birdie to match

Joerger boy I love his rhythm Dy it’s like a metronome it has not changed all day you are right uhoh oh no that’s a club too long we got a red penalty down there let’s see if that got all the way down Trevor that is cut pretty short

Once you get into the area that’s marked beyond the Red Line This is perched up too what a break what a shot unbelievable tell you more people are going to start doing this Matthew Fitzpatrick Matthew Pon you don’t have to be Matthew to do it anyone’s able to go left hand low you

[Laughter] know Breeze just picked up in front of Pavone’s swing 172 is the total oh he hit some shot in [Applause] here beautiful a gap wedge might be a really good club to choose heavy a little tight and it’s a long way away you’re not going to thin it most

Important thing there is you have to be committed are you going to fly it all that way there with a ton of spin or go for the chunk and run you cannot get stuck between the two Pavone’s eyes are all over it oh yes Trey Ball

The 20 ft this week and what a time to do it he knows it look at that bit of French flare in there playing quickly yeah he’s in a hurry to get it done just make sure you get it in the Fairway here don’t compound this

Error no oh boy that’s not what you want make sure you get get good solid contact he gave everything he had came up barreling right what a shot he pulled it off just off the hole this is for the win never doubt all the way France has the

First that birdie after that remarkable third shot I tell you before he played his third four was never even on the Mind Trevor Agreed 100% what a beautiful angle this is the way he had to fight through that adversity after the short Miss at 17 he’s struggling all the way down

18 and this is how he finishes it off brilliant we have a champion standing by with Amanda Matthew not easy to win on the p GGA tour and you do it just three starts in to your rookie season what does this Victory mean to you we just

Of Joy tomorrow I’m glad I haven’t cried yet but uh he must come talk about the hard work that you had to put in today to get this done the par save on 14 the par save on 16 what’s going through your mind when you walk off with that bogey

On 17 and you have to stand over that daunting t- shot on the last I don’t know I I I just try to stay in the the present moment um I always keep notes with me uh kind of try to to just read them down down the stretch and

  1. Beautiful tempo. Nice win. Played well enough to win on euro tour last year as well – Acciona Open de España.

  2. LIV may or may not become successful. But at the moment it lacks what this tournament for example provides. Which is the legitimacy of the standardized format. The rigorous grind of the four rounds up against the most elite competition. Now LIV has some of the top players in the world, including my current favorite player Bryson. BUT that is still not enough for me to buy what LIV is selling. NOBODY, and I mean nobody seriously cares about team golf either. Do I want to see Bryson Win a major? Yes. Do I care if he wins a 54 hole event on LIV? As of now, no.

  3. Dont you just love to see a meritocracy thriving with Pavon earning his chance and winning. The American ethos wins through
