In 2022, Brooks Koepka decided to leave the PGA Tour and join the LIV Golf League, a controversial move that has altered the landscape of professional golf. The league, which is financially backed by the Sovereign Wealth Fund of Saudi Arabia, offered Brooks a substantial financial incentive to make the switch.
He reportedly received a one-time payment of $100 million to join the league. Koepka's move to LIV Golf has also been financially rewarding, as he won an additional $8 million in his first year of competition.
While his decision to join LIV Golf led to a permanent ban from the PGA Tour, Brooks' career has continued to thrive. Despite the ban, he made headlines by winning the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club
Does Brooks Koepka have any Masters?
As of now, Brooks Koepka has yet to win the Masters Tournament. However, he has come close with two runner-up finishes, in 2019 and 2023. Plus, Brooks has finished in the top 10 three times in his eight appearances at Augusta National.
In the 2024 Masters Tournament, Brooks finished tied for 45th, and he openly took responsibility for his disappointing result. Speaking to the media ahead of the 2024 LIV Golf Singapore event in May, he admitted he felt he had wasted time between December and the Masters in April. He also cited his struggles with putting as the main factor behind his poor performance.
"Ball doesn't go in the hole, that's usually one of them. I don't know how else to simply put it," he said, per Golf Week. "I feel like I'm hitting good putts, they just keep burning lips. Eventually, it starts to wear on you after a while. All you can do is hit a good putt and see where it goes from there. Hopefully, they start falling soon.”
He added, "I can't find the hole at all, to be honest with you. Something we've just been putting some work into, so trying to find some answers."
