Koepka, 33, has been in the news for quite some time now. Other than his epic golfing skills, the player has also made headlines for his staggering comments about PGA Tour pros and their alleged ‘slow play’. However, after suffering a major setback within his LIV team, “Smash GC”, the golfer is reportedly seeking help from the PGA Tour.

For those who don’t know, Koepka’s LIV Golf team recently lost a valuable asset amidst several speculations. As per sources, Matthew Wolff has departed from the golfer’s wing of the breakaway league and is no longer part of Smash GC. Golf journalist Dan Rapaport reported that the golf star was seemingly looking for a new team to join as, for him, “vibes were off” at his former team.
