Watch the Farmers Insurance Open this week for the latest event on the 2025 PGA Tour, with all the information in this article on live streams, TV broadcasts, and how to tune in wherever you are in the world.
The unusual thing about the Farmers Insurance Open is that it will be played from Wednesday through Saturday, rather than the traditional Thursday-Sunday schedule, due to the clash with Sunday's action in the NFL.
Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele are two high-profile withdrawals but it's still a star-studded field that will take to the North and South courses at Torrey Pines in California. Among the favourites are Ludvig Aberg, Hideki Matsuyama, Jason Day, Singjae Im, Tony Finau, Max Homa, and 2024 champion Mathieu Pavon.
