The new season technically started in October at the Safeway Open, and the Tournament of Champions' spot on the calendar serves as a campaign launch of sorts. But to many, the Farmers Insurance Open -- thanks to its respected venue and strong field -- serves as the de facto "Opening Day" for the PGA Tour. Held at Torrey Pines Golf Course in La Jolla, California, the event -- once known as the San Diego Open -- has been a regular PGA Tour stop since 1952. The first two days are held on the North and South courses, with the South hosting the final 36 holes of competition. Tiger Woods is making his first official PGA Tour appearance in 18 months; the 14-time major winner has won the tournament a record seven times, and also claimed the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines. Brandt Snedeker is the reigning champion, having also grabbed the event's crown in 2012.
