For many, the golf season doesn't officially get underway until the majestic views of the iconic Torrey Pines Golf Course grace our television and entertainment screens each January.

The Farmers Insurance Open, first established in 1952, is always one of the most anticipated events on the golfing schedule year after year. Its long list of champions is impressive and come the end of the 2024 Farmers Insurance Open this weekend, another player will be able to etch their name on that illustrious list.

Last year, Max Homa won this famous tournament for the very first time. The California native entered the final round at this iconic venue five shots adrift of leader Sam Ryder before mounting a furious comeback during the final round to claim his first title at Torrey Pines by a two-shot margin.

Homa will be looking for a similar outcome over the next two days as he aims to become the first player to win consecutive titles at this tournament since Tiger Woods in 2008.
