Brooks Koepka has asserted that winning Major Championships is easier than regular tournaments and, what's more, he has backed up the bold claim by winning five of them.
Brooks Koepka was born and raised in the United States but got his start in professional golf in Europe, something he credits with polishing his game and fueling his success at the highest level.
Koepka holds five Major titles, winning back-to-back US Opens in 2017 and 2018 before achieving the same feat at the 2018 and 2019 US PGA Championship, which he won again in 2023.
The US PGA Championship win in 2023 made him the first LIV golfer to win a major.
Koepka is the only golfer to ever hold two major titles in successive years simultaneously and the first man to successfully defend the US Open title since the 1980s.
Koepka did not achieve the kind of early success that propelled the likes of Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy to golfing superstardom. Instead, he seemed to grow into the role, coming into his own as the new era of power-hitters dawned.
Coming from a family obsessed with sport, Koepka has been willing to put in the work in the gym to improve his chances out on the course.
His high percentage of majors contrasts with a patchy regular tour record and Koepka himself has said he feels that golf's biggest tournaments are the easiest to win.
Koepka reached number one in the Official World Golf Rankings for the first time in his double-major winning 2018 season.
