Fans react to Brooks Koepka and Jon Rahm's epic finale moments
Brooks Koepka, who was leading the table before round four, kind of lost his touch in the last round. Experts say it could be because of him not being used to playing 72 holes tournaments (since LIV has 54 holes tournaments).
Jon Rahm, on the other hand, started in his 'rampage' mode to take a massive lead by the end of the fourth round. He ended his campaign with a -12 score, four shots more than second-ranked LIV golfers Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson.
However, on The Masters Twitter page's tweet, fans reacted to the epic finale battle between Koepka and Rahm. The latter received massive wishes and praise for his incredible performance.
