Q&A: Brooks Koepka on his major mindset, PGA triumphs and never being afraid to win

Brooks Koepka has been a menace at the PGA Championship. Three wins, two of them back-to-back and he arrives at Valhalla next week as the defending champion, having triumphed by three strokes over Viktor Hovland.

Koepka may be playing as a member of LIV Golf but it hasn’t seemed to hurt his reputation as a big-game hunter. His win at the PGA at Oak Hill was his third time winning the Wanamaker Trophy and lifted him into rare company of those players with at least five majors to his credit. That includes winning two majors in 2018 at the U.S. Open and PGA.

“After doing so, I bought my entire team a Rolex. When I look back at that, it is one of the most special watches that I have. It has “Back-to-back Champs” engraved on the back,” Koepka said. “I know it means a lot to me and I always think it is really cool when I see the rest of my team wearing their watch on their wrists.”

Koepka, a Rolex testimonee who has been sporting a white Daytona model for the past few years, took part in a Q&A that covered his success at the PGA, his major mindset and much, much more.
