Brooks Koepka became the first LIV Golf star to win a Major last night as he triumphed on a thrilling final day at the US PGA.
And the American’s fifth Major title also lifts him up to second place in the rankings for the US Ryder Cup team. Since his last Major victory at the 2019 US PGA across New York State at Bethpage Black, Koepka had undergone knee surgery and suffered a crisis of confidence which was captured in the Netflix Full Swing series.
While missing the cut at the Masters last year, he told his wife Jenna: “I’m going to be honest with you, I can’t compete with these guys week in and week out.”
