All-time greatest shots from Farmers Insurance Open

All-time greatest shots from Farmers Insurance Open

    Written by Staff, PGATOUR.COM

    The PGA TOUR's West Coast Swing continues on to its second leg at the Farmers Insurance Open at historic Torrey Pines Golf Course.

    The scenic San Diego venue welcomes the TOUR's best who are all looking to start their 2025 campaign on the right page.

    The PGA TOUR uses a standardized system for determining event fields, based on the current season’s Priority Ranking while also including additional exemption and qualifying categories.

    Field sizes can vary by event, as can the number of event-specific exemptions. Fully exempt PGA TOUR members are guaranteed entry into all full-field events, with various conditional categories subject to periodic reshuffles based upon FedExCup Points accrued throughout the season. Categories with 'reshuffle' notation indicate that a reshuffle period has occurred.

    Note: An additional year of eligibility was granted to some categories because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
