ESPN is televising a non-major PGA Tour event for the first time in close to two decades this week. The network picked up three hours on Thursday and Friday before Golf Channel comes on.

For the first time in four years, the Farmers will finish on Sunday. Due to a desire to avoid the NFL’s AFC and NFC Championship games, the Farmers went to a Wednesday-to-Saturday format. But, there’s no NFL playoff games this Sunday so Farmers slides back to its usual place.

What happened Thursday in the first round at the Farmers?

Justin Rose fired a blistering opening-round, bogey-free 62 and holds the lead after 18 holes. Rose made 10 birdies and eight pars en route to a 62 on the North Course at Torrey Pines. He is one shot ahead of Justin Lower, who sits in solo second at 9 under.

Lower admitted he’s hardly thinking about golf.

“If I’m being really truthful with everyone, my mind’s not really here,” Lower told reporters after his round. “My wife is 34 weeks pregnant with twins and I’m just trying to get home on Monday, honestly, to try to help everything out as much as I can. Luckily we have family close and everything. She’s going through it right now. Life’s about to get real if it wasn’t real already.”

How did Brooks Koepka play in his first round back on the PGA Tour?

Koepka made his PGA Tour return Thursday at the Farmers Insurance Open, signing for a 1-over 74 at Torrey Pines South Course. The five-time major champion showed a bit of rust, especially with the driver, but a birdie on the closing hole put a good taste on what was a nervous return after leaving LIV Golf late last year. Read more about his round and what Koepka called a renewed love of the game of golf.
