Earlier in the week Brooks Koepka was downplaying his chances to defend at the upcoming PGA Championship.
Just a few days later, the five-time major champion was raising his fourth LIV Golf trophy after winning the 2024 LIV Golf Singapore at Sentosa Golf Club on Sunday.
Koepka shot a 3-under 68 in the final round to finish at 15 under, two shots clear of Ripper GC teammates Cameron Smith (64) and Marc Leishman (66), who were tied for second at 13 under. Defending champion Talor Gooch (67) finished fourth at 12 under, with Tyrrell Hatton (66) and Thomas Pieters (69) tied for fifth at 11 under.
Koepka previously won LIV Golf Jeddah (2022, 2023) and LIV Golf Orlando (2023).
Thanks to their captain Smith and his first mate Leishman, the Ripper GC boys took the team title at 32 under, three shots clear of runner-up Fireballs GC and Cleeks GC at 29 under. It's the second consecutive win for the all-Australian squad after they won their home event last week in Adelaide.
The league is now off for a month until LIV Golf Houston makes its debut, June 7-9 at Golf Club of Houston. The PGA Championship is set for May 16-19 at Valhalla Golf Course in Louisville.
