Joel Dahmen made the most of his opportunity as an alternate in the field at the Farmers Insurance, pulling out a top-10 finish Sunday to earn a spot later this month at the TOUR\u2019s next Full Field Event. <\/p>\n
Just Friday, Dahmen was lamenting the instability of an uncertain schedule<\/a>, noting that his conditional status after finishing No. 122 in the FedExCup Fall left him wondering if he\u2019d see a dozen starts in the 2026 season. \u201cThere\u2019s a part in mid-December where I wasn\u2019t doing a lot and hanging out with the family, and at times you\u2019d be like, \u2018I wonder if I\u2019m only gonna get into 12, 15 events,\u2019\u201d he told Golf Digest on Friday.<\/p>\n But he\u2019s put at least one more piece of the puzzle in place before leaving Torrey Pines, where he finished T7, which makes him eligible for the Cognizant Classic at The Palm Beaches, Feb. 26-March 1 at PGA National Resort. Dahmen also put himself in position to crack the Aon Swing 5, with one more week to play his way into the coveted standings that give five players starts into the first two Signature Events of the season at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational. Dahmen will play next week\u2019s WM Phoenix Open on a sponsor exemption.<\/p>\n *:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-17ygvlf>img,.css-17ygvlf>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-17ygvlf::before{height:0px;content:””;display:block;padding-bottom:56.25%;}]]> Joel Dahmen hits 224-yard approach to 56 feet, sets up birdie on No. 6 at Farmers<\/p>\n The 38-year-old Dahmen, who won the 2021 Corales Puntacana Championship for his lone TOUR title, opened with a 2-under 70 on the South Course at Torrey Pines before unleashing a 9-under 63 Friday on the North Course that featured three eagles. He followed up Saturday with 4-under 68 to reach 15-under and stand alone at solo second on the leaderboard, but a lackluster 73 on Sunday left him nine shots behind winner Justin Rose.<\/p>\n He was overheard Saturday saying he wasn\u2019t surprised at how well he was playing, explaining to the media that the reason was simple: \u201cWell, because I practiced a little bit. It sounds terrible. Yeah, Jan. 1 hit, and I started to play some golf and work a little bit with the coach and put some time in on my own and that was great.<\/p>\n \u201cI played really well last week,\u201d he continued, referring to his T38 finish at The American Express. \u201cIt clicked pretty quickly for me and, you know, when I make a few putts and the way I’m driving it right now, it all works out.\u201d<\/p>\n *:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-11jnzpa>img,.css-11jnzpa>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-11jnzpa::before{height:0px;content:””;display:block;padding-bottom:66.66666666666666%;}]]> Feb 1, 2026<\/p>\n Dahmen rising to occasion at just the right time at Torrey Pines<\/a>Latest<\/a>![\"Joel](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1770004453_236_image.jpg\")
