For the past three days, Brooks Koepka has been enjoying the top position of the leaderboard at the Masters. However, along with his lead, the LIV star has also been surrounded by a pinch of controversy. Though Koepka rejected showing signs to his first-round playing partner Gary Woodland, a new video depicts how the golfer may have been lying.

With his impressive performance at Augusta National, Brooks Koepka may be a few hours away from wearing the Green Jacket for the first time. It would his first Major since the 2019 PGA Championship. His exceptional 2023 Masters began in the first round itself.

However, apart from his seven-under-par performance, Koepka was accused of showing signals to the caddie of his friend and Thursday’s playing partner Woodland. Though both golfers rejected the accusations, Brooks’ video from the final round proves otherwise.

While swinging at the Par-5 Firethorn in the First Round, Koepka mastered the eagle stroke with a 5-iron. After getting into the greens, he managed to record a birdie on the 15th hole. However, before heading to the greens, Brooks was seen signaling ‘five’ while removing the glove to Woodland’s caddie, which could have been a message to use the 5-iron for a perfect stroke.
