Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka showing early sign of major struggles
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The affiliations of players, whether they belong to the PGA Tour or LIV Golf, no longer seem to be much of a talking point except to note who’s playing at the start and who wins at the end.
But two majors into the year, a couple of LIV players are worth noting for barely being visible.
Brooks Koepka has never gone more than one major outside the top 20 when healthy. Now he has gone three straight majors out of the top 25 dating to the British Open last summer. He tied for 45th at the Masters and tied for 26th at the PGA Championship this year, with a LIV victory in between.
Asked to assess his week, Koepka replied, “Not very good. I think it’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?”
Dustin Johnson is building a larger sample size, and it is not impressive for the two-time major champion. He had to birdie three of the last five holes Friday at Valhalla to make the cut on the number. He has never missed three straight cuts in the majors.
