Weather Without a doubt, this will be an easier Torrey Pines than we typically see. With that being said, this will not be a soft golf course. We had two weeks of really bad rain in Southern California at the beginning of January, but by now, things have really dried out.

The PGA Tour heads to beautiful La Jolla, California this week for the Farmer’s Insurance Open, a staple on the PGA Tour since 1952. It was not held at Torrey Pines (simultaneously one of the greatest architectural travesties and most beautiful walks in the country) until 1968, a public golf facility owned by the city of San Diego.
