From Torrey Pines in CA, last year's winner was Marc Leishman.
Tour Event 2021 Farmers Insurance Open
This is a fun one to watch. Having played it, it's always cool to see the spots the pros end up and how they escape the brutal rough us mere mortals would only hope to escape.
Hoping we see Rahm play this week because he has some good memories here after his win a few years ago. Selfishly I hope Rickie can find some form for his sponsor.

totally agree!! I played it last year the week before the Farmer's and was blown away how high and thick the rough got. Ive played both Torrey courses 3x and that week before the Farmers was brutal for me. I hit lots of good drives literally 1 - 2 yards off the fairway and couldn't find the ball!
I can only imagine how it'll be for the open this year. Im playing it again this April
To me this always seems like the start of the regular season.
This is always a fun one to watch, I think with the familiarity of the golf course it just makes it easier to watch
The real beginning of the West Coast Swing after Hawaii and the birdie fest in the American Express. Great course brings out a better field for this one.
Keeping an eye on that Spieth character in this one. Coming off a pretty good break and all the hoopla on the Butch visit. Let's see if anything changes.
This is always a fun tour event to watch. I am hoping we see some real drama! I wish we had more of the west coast prime time events though
We played there last month and the rough was up in prep for the farmers and had the same problem. Lost a bunch of balls just off the fairway when we knew the general area. Each time we would find several other random balls.
We play there a lot and it was crazy how much more difficult it was with thick rough. The greens are always fast there but they were like lightning and the pin locations were brutal. If that was a month out I can't imagine how hard it will play this weekend.

I'm fortunate to volunteer as a Marshall for this tournament. This will be my 5th year on hole 2 North. It will be interesting this year without fans. Looks like Wednesday and Thursday we will have decent weather. Friday looks like rain all day. Looking forward to being inside the ropes with these great players.

He’s 41/1. Not even close to the favorite. Rahm 7/1, Rory 9/1 etc..

I have lost a few snap hooks into the bushes off #2! It's also one of the only holes I have birdied there. Really excited to see how the pros approach that stretch of 2-3-4 on the north course.
How did you get that gig? I'm bummed there's no fans this year, was looking forward to my first live PGA event.
Yea it was crazy. It was enjoyable to say I played the same setup, but I wouldn't do it again. The whole round my group, along with pretty much everyone else on the course, constantly walked in circles with our hands up like "Where the F is my ball?" lol
I swear id watch exactly where my ball went and when I got there I could not find it. Lost 8 that day without hitting any hazards
Yea im trying to wrap my head around how hard the Farmer's plays, and the US Open is supposed to be even harder?!
sure hope he can return to the top!

Love a good Torrey Pines view! I will be watching closer than normal as I am supposed to go play there later this year...
Same..
Hoping for a good result from JDay with his new multi brand bag setup. He’s on my fantasy “block” list and here’s his chance to make me reconsider.
