AUGUSTA, Ga. — One year ago Brooks Koepka had, once again, missed the cut at the Masters.
His knee continued to ache from a 2021 dislocation, cap shattering and medial patellofemoral ligament tear. His rehab seemed hopeless, a series of downs with only the occasional up.
Forget about missing the cut for the third consecutive year. At 12-under, he’s in serious control of this event and looking every bit the peak-Keopka who dominated the majors for a few years there.“I don't even know if I should be saying this,” he said of his one-sided fist fight with the car window.Brooks Koepka is back, not just lighting up the scoreboard but as an entertaining if occasionally enraging personality.
“It's just competitively where you miss playing against them, right?” Koepka said of not being around the great players on the PGA Tour. “Because you want Rory [McIlroy] to play his best and Scottie [Scheffler] to play his best and Jon [Rahm] to play his best and go toe-to-toe with them. I do miss that. That's one thing that I do miss, and that's what I think makes these majors so cool.
