Brooks Koepka (born May 3, 1990) is an American professional golfer who has won five major championships and once held the top spot in the Official World Golf Ranking. After a standout college career at Florida State, he turned pro in 2012 and quickly climbed the ranks, earning his European Tour card with three Challenge Tour wins in 2013 and securing his first PGA Tour victory at the 2015 Phoenix Open. His major breakthrough came at the 2017 U.S. Open, and he went on to dominate the sport by successfully defending that title in 2018 and capturing the PGA Championship in both 2018 and 2019. In 2022, Koepka made a high-profile move to the LIV Golf circuit, where he won multiple events and added a fifth major title at the 2023 PGA Championship. He later left LIV Golf and returned to the PGA Tour in 2026, cementing his legacy as one of the most clutch major performers of his generation.
