Brooks Koepka commented after his win at LIV Golf Singapore
Winning LIV Golf Singapore couldn't have happened at a better time for Brooks Koepka. As mentioned above, Koepka is set to defend his PGA Championship later in May. Hence, coming back in form at LIV Golf Singapore is the best thing that could have happened to him.
After his victory in Singapore, Brooks Koepka said something along similar lines. In his interview, the 34-year-old golfer mentioned that all his hard work is starting to come around. He also added that seeing his work pay off in Singapore was huge. He said:
"It's all starting to come around. I've put in a lot of work. I feel like on the golf course, off the golf course. It's been a good two weeks, to say the least. I took a week off and then grinded pretty hard with Claude over the last few days. I thought that was very important. To see it pay off here is huge."
While Koepka indeed deserves to celebrate his victory, he must not celebrate too long. After all, the 34-year-old has the huge task of defending his PGA Championship later this month against some big names.
