Harris English overcame challenging weather conditions and a strong challenge from Callum Stevens to win the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines.
Harris English secured his fifth PGA Tour victory at the Farmers Insurance Open , prevailing with a 1-over 73 in challenging weather conditions at Torrey Pines. English, who held the lead after both the first and second rounds, finished at 8-under 280, a single shot ahead of runner-up, Callum Stevens . Stevens, who began the day six shots off the lead, delivered the best final round of the tournament with a 68.
Despite the strong winds and intermittent rain, English remained composed, stringing together 12 consecutive pars after two early bogeys. Andrew Novak, who briefly held the lead, ultimately fell short of his first tour victory, carding a disappointing 74 after a promising start. Novak's roller-coaster round included two early bogeys followed by three straight birdies, highlighted by a remarkable 54-foot putt on the fifth hole. However, he struggled to maintain that momentum, making three bogeys and a birdie around the turn, while English steadily climbed the leaderboard.Stevens, playing six groups ahead of the final pairing, applied consistent pressure with his stellar final round. He birdied four of the first nine holes, showcasing his resilience even amidst the challenging wind conditions. Despite finishing well before the leaders, Stevens' performance set the stage for a thrilling finish. English's victory marked his return to the winner's circle since the 2021 Travelers Championship, where he triumphed over Kramer Hickok in an eight-hole playoff. This win at Torrey Pines further solidified English's history at the iconic course, adding to his previous third-place finish at the 2021 U.S. Open
