The tournament was noted for having singer-actor Andy Williams as a celebrity host from 1968 through 1988.[2][3] It originated as the San Diego Open in 1952 and used that name in its title through 1985. Title sponsors were added in 1981, first with Wickes for two years, then three with Isuzu. Shearson Lehman Brothers became the title sponsors in 1986, replaced by Buick in 1992 and Farmers Insurance in 2010.[4] The event is organized by The Century Club of San Diego.

Although the San Diego Open began in 1952, the PGA Tour recognizes two earlier events of the same name: Leo Diegel won both events, in December 1927 and January 1929.[5][6][7] It was an autumn event in 1956 and 1957,[8][9] not held in 1958, and returned as a winter event in early 1959.[10]

Founded seventy years ago in 1952, the first two editions were played at San Diego Country Club in Chula Vista.[11][12] In 1954, the San Diego Open was at Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club,[13] which had hosted the Crosby Pro-Am prior to World War II.[14]

The event was played at Mission Valley Country Club in San Diego in 1955,[15] then went to Singing Hills Country Club in El Cajon in October 1956.[8] The tournament returned to Mission Valley C.C. in 1957,[9] where it stayed through 1963.[16] Mission Valley changed its name to Stardust Country Club in 1962 (and now is known as Riverwalk Golf Club). After one edition in 1964 at Rancho Bernardo Country Club (now Rancho Bernardo Inn) in San Diego,[17] it returned to Stardust for three years, through 1967.[18][19][20]

In 1968, the event began its present relationship with Torrey Pines Golf Course in La Jolla, a 36-hole public facility owned by the City of San Diego. During those early editions at Torrey Pines, the course length was under 6,850 yards (6,265 m).[21][22][23] In the current tournament set-up, players split the first 36 holes between the North and South Courses, then play the final 36 holes on the South Course. The South Course has hosted the U.S. Open twice: Tiger Woods won in a playoff in 2008,[24] and Jon Rahm won in 2021.
