We break down the first two rounds of the Farmers Insurance Open, featuring Justin Rose’s vintage dominance and a bizarre broadcast controversy surrounding Brooks Koepka’s resume.

• Justin Rose turns back the clock at Torrey Pines, firing a 62 on the North and 65 on the South to reach a staggering 17-under par. He holds a four-shot lead over a resurgent Seamus Power, who has finally solved a two-year back injury.
• Rose went 29 holes without a bogey, noting his "process is fantastic" despite a late bunker slip-up.
• Joel Dahmen provided the statistical absurdity of the week, carding three eagles during his second round on the North Course.

• The commentary booth sparked outrage by claiming Brooks Koepka has been "away from the game" for three years, seemingly ignoring his major championship and LIV victories. Koepka scraped by to make the cut on the number (-3).
• Amidst the noise, Koepka offered a candid soundbite about simply wanting to be "loved by the fans."
• Rumors swirl regarding Patrick Reed eyeing a PGA Tour return in September, while Justin Lower battles for his card with his wife 34 weeks pregnant with twins.

Woodland’s slam dunk hole-out • Rookie DQ’d for green reading materials • Lanto’s "Koepka Rule" joke
