The 2025 Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines faced challenging conditions on January 23, with scoring averages exceeding 75.50 due to high winds.

Wind gusts surpassed 35 mph, leading to an 86-minute delay as play was suspended due to dangerous conditions, which forced players to complete their rounds quickly.

No player managed a bogey-free round during the windy conditions, which also stirred up dirt and sand from the course.

Danny Walker is in third place at 5-under, while Chris Gotterup, Hayden Springer, and Sungjae Im are tied at 4-under after Gotterup shot the day's best round of 69.

Eric Cole finished his round with a 71, noting that the unpredictable wind made play particularly challenging.

Aberg, the first-round leader, shot a 3-over 75 on the tougher South Course, while Griffin recorded a 72.

World No. 4 Hideki Matsuyama made the cut at 1-under despite struggling with the wind, finishing with a 75.

Ludvig Aberg and Lanto Griffin are tied for the lead at the Farmers Insurance Open, both scoring 6-under 138 after the second round.

Amateur Luke Clanton paused his play on the 17th hole due to harsh wind conditions and plans to resume on January 24.

Clanton and fellow amateur Jackson Koivun need strong finishes to secure points in the PGA Tour University Accelerated program for full-time playing privileges.

A brush fire occurred near UC San Diego, burning three acres but was quickly contained by 175 firefighters.

Griffin described the conditions as a 'head-down grind,' emphasizing the difficulty of maintaining focus amidst the brutal gusts.
