Brooks Koepka First to Win Five Times on LIV Golf Circuit

Brooks Koepka made the jump to LIV Golf after two seasons of lackluster play, especially according to his standards, on the PGA TOUR.

Now, he’s become the first player in LIV Golf’s lineup to win five times after defeating Jon Rahm in a playoff at the Greenbrier event this past weekend.

It was also Koepka’s second victory of the season.

Kopeka had to fend off teammate Jason Kokrak and Rahm, who was keen on making it a close competition as he birdied two of the final three holes to take it to a playoff. 

However, Rahm’s tee shot on the Par 3 18th hole at Greenbrier went over the green into a bunker. He was able to salvage bogey after a rim-out on a 25-foot putt for par. Koepka’s par secured him the victory.

Koepka’s Smash GC also won the team title at Greenbrier.
