Defending champ Max Homa, Patrick Cantlay highlight the Farmers Insurance Open 2024 field

The PGA Tour is currently in California for The American Express 2024. Following the event, the circuit will head to San Diego for the Farmers Insurance Open 2024. The event played at Torrey Pines is set to tee off on Thursday, January 24. The fourth event of the 2024 PGA Tour season will feature a stacked field compete for the $9,000,000 purse.

The full field for the Farmers Insurance Open is confirmed and defending champion Max Homa headlines it. The 33-year-old will be joined by the likes of World No. 5 Patrick Cantlay, No. 6 Xander Schauffele, and No. 21 Tony Finau. The event will see Ryan Fox and Adrian Meronk make their first starts as Tour members this season.

The event will also have Ludvig Aberg, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Hideki Matsuyama, Gary Woodland, Billy Horschel, Justin Rose, Justin Suh, Shane Lowry, Min Woo Lee, Sahith Theegala, S.H. Kim and Will Zalatoris among others, competing for the top prize. Daniel Berger, who returned from injury this week, will also return next weekend.

Despite being a famed event on the PGA Tour schedule, players like Rory McIlroy have decided to skip the Farmers Insurance Open. Scottie Scheffler, currently teeing up at The American Express, will not return next weekend. Tiger Woods, who’d hinted at playing more events in 2024, is also sitting out the competition at Torrey Pines.
