The 32-year-old held the title for the world’s top-ranked golfer not long ago, but his LIV exploits have tarnished years of hard work on the PGA Tour, evident by his latest setback.
Arguably one of the generation’s most talented golfers, four-time major champion, Brooks Koepka, has significantly fallen off the OWGR grid.
Brooks Koepka's PGA Journey to World No.1.
An eight-time PGA Tour winner, Koepka made his debut in 2012 and found immediate success.
His initial wins came on the European tour, which provided him exemption and an entry to the major championships. Three years later, Koepka kickstarted his American adventure with his first win, at the coveted WM Phoenix Open. He has won several titles since, including four major championships.
His crowning moment arrived after his victory at the 2018 CJ Cup, which lifted him to a World No. 1 rank.
Despite inconsistent form in the following years,
Koepka occasionally managed to retain his position at the summit. He was last ranked at the top of the rankings in February 2020, before a nagging hip injury led to his downfall.

Koepka’s decision to join the lucrative LIV Golf Series for a reported contract worth $100 million ceased all hopes of a return to the top spot.
Since June 2022, he has played in merely three OWGR-sanctioned events, namely the 150th Open Championship, the Saudi International, and the International Series Oman.
Where does Koepka rank currently?
Koepka is currently ranked World No. 102,
Which is the first time in almost ten years that he has dropped out of the top 100. He fell out of the top 50 in December last year.
