"I played absolutely horrible in all the majors"- Brooks Koepka reflects on a disappointing 2024 season
Last year, Brooks Koepka was the second LIV golfer to win a major. He won the PGA Championship after defeating Scottie Scheffler by two strokes. The first major, the Masters Tournament, was won by Jon Rahm. Koepka also became the only LIV golfer to play on the Ryder Cup team.
However, the 34-year-old has not enjoyed similar success this year. He didn't have any top-twenty finishes in any of the four majors. At the Masters Tournament, Koepka landed at T45 with 73, 73, 76, and 75 over the four rounds.
At the PGA Championship and the US Open, Brooks Koepka placed at T26. Playing at The Open Championship, he finished at T43 after carding 70,73,78,71.
Expressing disappointment over his results this season, Koepka remarked that the year has been underwhelming in terms of the results as they weren't as impressive compared to last year. He said (via "@mrmckee" on X):
“I played absolutely horrible in all the majors and I've only won once out here (LIV),” Brooks Koepka said.
Koepka won the LIV Golf Singapore with 66, 64, and 68. Currently, he is playing at the LIV Golf Greenbrier and is T4 after the first round.
