Brooks Koepka

Brooks Koepka is of only 20 male golfers in history to have won at least five majors following victory in the 2023 PGA Championship, his third in the event in six years.

Koepka was the winner of back-to-back US Open and PGA titles between 2017 and 2019, and in 2019 also had runner-up finishes in The Masters and US Open and tied for fourth in The Open at Royal Portrush. He set a new major record after starting with 63 and 65 at the feared Bethpage Black in the 2019 PGA as he moved to world No.1 with his fourth major.

He could so easily have added to his tally in 2021, posting another second place at the PGA, coming joint fourth in the US Open and joint sixth at Royal St George's, while he was the long-time leader at The Masters in 2023 before being out-gunned by Jon Rahm in the final round.

His first success came by four in the 2017 US Open at Erin Hills, with a tournament record-equalling 16-under-par total, then at Shinnecock Hills he edged out Tommy Fleetwood by one for a successful defence.

Two months later Koepka claimed his third major at the PGA, holding off a charging Tiger Woods with a 264 aggregate that matched Henrik Stenson’s then major record set at Royal Troon in 2016.
