c - How do I loop through each line of a file?

I'm trying to allocate memory for a new struct for each line in a file, but when the file is empty, my loop still allocates memory once. the issues is using while(!feof(file)), but I can't figure out an alternative check for the while loop.

the loop looks like this:

while(!feof(f))
{

    p = (struct PlayerTime*)malloc(sizeof(struct PlayerTime));
    head = p;
    fscanf(f, "%f %s", &p->seconds, p->name);
    p = p->next;
}

the pointers and structs are all defined prior to the loop, I just can't figure out how to get this to not loop if there's nothing in the file.
