This was not the Joel Dahmen we all know. On Thursday in the Farmers Insurance Open, the popular tour player who is easily recognizable because of his bucket hat looked like just your average pro. A normal golf cap was the headwear of choice because it had to be, with the Santa Ana winds consistently blowing at Torrey Pines up to 35 mph.

SAN DIEGO — Dottie Pepper was fed up. The well-respected lead on-course reporter for CBS had spent nearly three hours following the final group of Harris English, Andrew Novak and Aldrich Potgieter. It probably didn’t help her mood that it wasn’t the best day to be walking Torrey Pines South, with a cold, steady breeze blowing off the Pacific Ocean and the temperature not getting out of the 50s.
