As the 2023 Masters kicks off in 3 days, Brooks Koepka is proving naysayers wrong with his blistering form. On Sunday, the 32-year-old won LIV Golf’s second season in Orlando, Florida.

Koepka’s $4,000,000 payout will give him some much-needed confidence as he heads to Augusta for the 87th edition of the Masters. 17 other golfers from the Saudi-backed LIV series will join the 4-time Major champion at the Augusta National. Following his historic victory, the golfer shed light on his goals and relationship with his PGA Tour compatriots.

His victory before heading to the Masters satisfies Brooks Koepka

Brooks Koepka, who defected to LIV Golf from the PGA Tour last year, is satisfied to get a win under this belt. Last year, he emerged victorious at the LIV event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Koepka took home $4 million for his individual victory, becoming the first player out of the golf tour’s 48-player roster to clinch two of its individual tournaments.

The golfer is hopeful about his chances at Augusta. Addressing a press conference at Orange County National, Koepka revealed, “I’m playing good, and there’s really no better way to go into Augusta than playing good and get a win.”

The two-time U.S. Major champion’s thrilling individual victory signifies the golfer’s return to fitness following several dismal outings due to his past injuries. “You get into bad habits. That’s the whole other thing because I can’t move the way I want to, so then I start doing stupid stuff, and once you get through the injury and get healthy, trying to break those is tough enough, so that sets you back even further,” revealed Koepka about his injury-laden days.

The LIV golfer is now looking forward to going head-to-head against his former PGA Tour compatriots at the 2023 Masters.

Koepka is excited to see the PGA Tour golfers back

Brooks Koepka harbors no ill feelings towards his former PGA Tour mates and is excited to meet them at Augusta. “Yeah, it’ll be great just to see all the good players back, back in one field again,” said the golfer. “That’ll be exciting.”

He revealed during the press conference that he missed playing against Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler and believed that they also reciprocated his sentiments. “I’ll be honest, I do miss playing against Rory, I do miss playing against Scottie, and I’m sure they miss playing against us as well. That’s a fact; you always want to play against the best.”

Koepka is hopeful of LIV Golf’s chances at the upcoming event. Per the golfer, one of the 18 LIV players winning will serve as a “huge statement for LIV”.
