Brooks Koepka was once the most dominant golfer at majors before injuries sapped his powers. Struggling on the course, he joined the Saudi-backed LIV Golf. Now, healthy again, he took a commanding clubhouse lead at the Masters.
AUGUSTA, Ga.—Brooks Koepka shrugged his shoulders in disappointment on Friday when his bunker shot on the second hole just missed going in for an eagle. It was one of the signs that Koepka is back: the player who for a period of time was once the most dominant force at majors, then vanished for a while, was again expecting greatness from himself.
After settling for a birdie there, he had to wait only six more holes to card an eagle. That type of play over the first two days at the Masters took him to 12-under par and a commanding clubhouse lead on Friday afternoon during the second round at Augusta National Golf Club.
