By whatever name the Farmers Insurance Open is played under next year, and wherever it falls on the PGA Tour schedule, at least one more past champion could be eligible to play. Patrick Reed, who won the Farmers in 2021 and then defected to LIV Golf a year and a half later, announced Wednesday he was seeking a return to the PGA Tour. “We feel this is an appropriately significant – and justified – financial consequence for former PGA Tour members who are reinstated,” said Chief Competitions Officer Tyler Dennis and Chief Player Officer Jason Gore in a memo Wednesday to Tour members. “We remain committed to strengthening the PGA Tour, serving our fans and welcoming back players who wish to return – through a consistent, policy-based process.”Reed’s announcement came the day before another former LIV member, Brooks Koepka, was scheduled to return to the PGA Tour at the Farmers. Reed’s last PGA Tour win was his victory at the Farmers.
