Rumor has it that Brooks Koepka has applied for reinstatement to the PGA Tour! In fact, Dan Rapaport also revealed that a source from ESPN has stated that someone from the PGA Tour office has confirmed the same. While the decision regarding his reinstatement hangs in the balance, one of his peers has already teased a possible collab.

Soon after the news dropped, Michael Kim tagged the ex-LIV Golf pro on X and wrote, “Yooo @BKoepka practice round soon? 😂.” After not getting a response for a couple of minutes, Kim returned with a tweet asking, “Too soon?”

Koepka hasn’t reacted to the invite yet. However, the friendly tease suggests that Kim might have inside knowledge that the former Smash GC captain has indeed applied for reinstatement. Even if he doesn’t, just going by how many sources have already confirmed the rumors, it’s evident that there is some truth to it.

Either way, Koepka himself has maintained radio silence ever since the news broke out. He hasn’t released a statement or shared a social media post since. His wife, Jena Sims, has also only indulged in her usual social media activities. She hasn’t reacted to the rumors or left any comments about her husband’s future.

As far as the decision regarding Koepka’s reinstatement goes, the PGA Tour might take some time to make a fair judgment. Reports suggest that Brian Rolapp has consulted the Chairman of the PGA Tour’s Future Competition Committee, Tiger Woods, over it. Considering the great dynamic between Koepka and Woods, the big cat might speak in favor of his friend.

Interestingly, strong rumors of Brooks Koepka wanting to leave LIV Golf and join the PGA Tour first began after his interaction with Tiger Woods in early 2025.

Was Tiger Woods the mastermind behind bringing Brooks Koepka back to the PGA Tour?

Rumors of Brooks Koepka wanting to leave LIV Golf have been running wild for over a year now. However, fans got a glimpse into his future when he attended a TGL event back in February 2025.

Koepka attended the game between Jupiter Links Golf Club and The Bay GC last season. While Woods was not playing, Koepka still got the opportunity to meet everyone else in action at SoFi Center.

Jena Sims had also accompanied him to the game. Koepka was also invited to the course as he was seen having a laugh with Max Homa, Tom Kim, and Shane Lowry. Being a part of the Jupiter Links and the co-owner of TGL, Woods must have also had the opportunity to meet the Smash GC captain during his visit.

That was the biggest indicator that suggested he was coming back. From then on, Fred Couples released the statement that Koepka was eager to make a return. Many experts also debated on the topic. And it finally happened. With Woods being consulted to decide Koepka’s future on the PGA Tour, it seems that we’ve come to a full-circle moment.
