This is a phenomenal Sunday for Brooks Koepka who flew to Jeddah this week with a lot of baggage. Not only was he carrying the sting from his Ryder Cup which showed in his game but he also had the giant tension of losing his younger brother to relegation.

But Sunday eased all his worries as Koepka emerged as a second-time winner at the event. And this is the first time that the five-time major winner has won a tournament after becoming a father. Realising the fact he made an emotional confession.
