The Sahith Theegala family is a familiar sight at PGA Tour events, but their appearance at the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open carried extra meaning. Notably, he made his 100th tour cut since earning his card in 2021. While Koepka’s return made headlines, this family celebration became the tournament’s feel-good moment. And fans poured nothing but love!

The official PGA Tour Instagram page captured the celebration. And the caption reads, “Team Theegala showing out for @SrTheegala’s 100th made cut on TOUR!”

The post went viral, receiving congratulations from every corner.

The pictures that the PGA Tour shared show how close the Theegala family is. From pictures of him as a child with his father to hugs on tour to celebrate, these moments show a journey built on love and support. The “100 PGA” celebration shirts and colorful banner reading “Let’s Go Sahith Theegala #100th Event” show that this family doesn’t just attend tournaments. They make every milestone memorable with genuine joy and pride.

At Torrey Pines, Sahith Theegala stayed calm on the tough South Course. He played well in the third round, finishing with a score of 73, one over par. He handled difficult conditions with three birdies, including two in a row on holes 15 and 17. The South Course challenged every part of his game, but Theegala remained steady, showing consistent performance that has been a trait of his recent play.

The 28-year-old has advanced significantly in professional golf, earning his PGA Tour card through the 2021 Korn Ferry Tour Finals after finishing in the top 10 three times consecutively. He achieved a major breakthrough by winning the 2023 Fortinet Championship, two strokes ahead of S.H. Kim, compensating for previous near misses like second place at the 2022 Travelers Championship and the RSM Classic.

2024 was a great season for the golfer. He finished third in the FedExCup, made the Presidents Cup team, and was in the top-ten nine times, including second at The Sentry. His game improved, especially off the tee, rising from 134th to 22nd in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee. He made his Presidents Cup debut at Royal Montreal, helping Team USA secure a 1-1-1 record. In 2021–22, he set a PGA Tour record with 433 birdies. In college at Pepperdine, he became the fifth player to win the Haskins, Ben Hogan, and Jack Nicklaus Awards in one year.

When Sahith Theegala reached his 100th PGA Tour start at the Tour Championship in September 2024, his family was there to celebrate.

Reflecting on that milestone, he shared, “It’s awesome to look back and think about because it didn’t go fast. The fact that I’ve been on tour two and a half years, it feels like I just got my card.”

He also spoke about the values his family instilled in him: “My family is just so positive, culturally and values-wise. I’ve been trying to pick up stuff from them as I’ve gone through life.”

His father captured their pride perfectly, saying, “When I see what person he is, I feel like fortunate that he’s born as our son.”

And the Sahith Theegala family’s continued presence on tour hasn’t gone unnoticed, as fans across social media celebrated it at the Farmers Open.
