Torrey Pines, California …. Tiger Woods has targeted a doube-digit under par finish to his 2019 Farmers Insurance Open campaign at Torrey Pines. The seven-time event winner heads into the final day of his first event of the New Year sharing 48th place at five-under par thanks to rounds of 70, 70 and a day three 71. Woods again drew the largest following on day three but failing to produce any real fireworks to be actually two-over par through 12 holes thanks to a bogey at his first hole or ...

Torrey Pines, California ….. World No. 1 Justin Rose is primed to capture an earliest New Year victory in 17-years heading to the final round of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. Rose, and in his second PGA Tour event of the year, continued to make somewhat of a mockery of packing a complete new set of new Japanese Honma clubs carding a round of 69 and remain three shots clear of his rivals for a 18-under par tally. Rose grabbed a ninth-hole eagle along with six birdies but also ...

Torrey Pines, California …. Top-ranked Scot Russell Knox dug deep on a ‘tougher’ South Course to not lose sight of the leaders on day two of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. Knox bravely didn’t drop a shot in posting a two-under par 70 to be inside the leading 20 in the $US 7.4m event at seven under par. The current World No. 66 trails eight shots behind World No. 1 Justin Rose, who opened-up a three-shot leading cushion with scores of 63 and a second round 66. Rory McIlroy, ...

Torrey Pines, California …. Rory McIlroy was soaring with not one but two completely different eagles within a seven-hole run at the start of his second round before eventually producing a ‘back-in-contention’ 65 at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. McIlroy, and teeing off from the ‘easier’ North Course, found the green with his second shot at the par-5 10th hole and then brilliantly holed a 15-footer for an eagle ‘3’. 1 hole. 2-under. EAGLE for ...

Torrey Pines, California … Shane Lowry’s good news start to his new season continues with confirmation he will contest next fortnight’s AT & T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. The reigning Abu Dhabi HSBC champion will tee-up in the event starting February 7th and on the famed Pacific Ocean washed course that in June will also host the U.S. Open. It will be Lowry’s first full PGA Tour event since the bitter disappointment of losing his Tour after a pair of 69s to be cut from last August’s Wyndham ...

Torrey Pines, California …. Rory McIlroy clearly delighted a heavily pregnant woman with a bizarre autograph request moments after a very disappointing ‘no frills’ opening round and in his first appearance in the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. McIlroy was level par coming down the last hole on the ‘harder’ South Course when he found a back bunker with his second shot at the par-5 18th. He then superbly splashed out to some four feet and then delighted packed ...

Torrey Pines, California … Tiger Woods admitted he got the new season ‘juices flowing’ from his very first tee shot in his very first event of 2019. Woods, and a former seven-time Farmers Insurance Open winner, split the fairway with a 288-yard drive ahead of producing a very respectable two-under par 70. The effort handed Woods a share of 53rd place and trailing eight strokes behind Spanish sensation Jon Rahm, who had the distinction of having his Spanish-based grandmother on hand ...
