They say the North course is the easier of the two at Torrey Pines for the Farmers Insurance Open. So far in 2025, that appears to be true again, as only eight golfers in the top 28 have a score of 4 under or better after 18 holes played on the South Course in Wednesday’s first round.
Ludvig Aberg leads the tournament by two shots after his 9-under 63 on the North. Tied for the second-most shots back is Danny Walker, who posted the South’s top score on Wednesday.
After 11 withdrawals before the tournament, two substitutes making the most of things so far in La Jollaincluding one who is tied for second after 18 holes.
Jason Day, meanwhile, had what turned out to be an uneventful day but also, for him, a rare day. He had a 2-over 74 with no birdies and no eagles, scoring just the 17th time in nearly 19 years on the PGA Tour that he signed a scorecard that included nothing better than par.
The only Wednesday-Saturday event on the PGA Tour schedule is being played this week at the 2025 Farmers Insurance Open.
