Part of the famous West Coast Swing, the The Farmers Insurance Open 2023 (originally the San Diego Open) is one of the longest-running and most important tournaments on the PGA Tour that is starting to get quite interesting. We are getting closer and closer to the first important tournament of the year, The Players Championship, and the Californian tournament is perfect to keep up the pace, as well as to warm up the engines on the American West Coast and its fast courses.
The tournament will be played from January 25 to January 28 at Torrey Pines, which in 2008 and 2021 hosted the US Open. It is a rather complicated and special course, because the first two rounds are played on the North Course, which is a little shorter, and the last two rounds, which are the decisive ones, are played on the South Course, which is one of the longest on the PGA Tour, which increases its difficulty..

- This tournament will be attended by 5 of the best players in the world. The highest ranked of them all is Spain’s Jon Rahm who won the event in 2017.
- This course, especially the South, is good for players with a powerful drive. Hideki Matsuyama has always had good performances in this field and is expected to be one of the stars of the event.
- Luke List won last year’s edition in a playoff against Will Zalatoris, and is a natural candidate, being the defending champion, but his current season has not been as good.
