Koepka missed the cut at the WM Phoenix Open, but since then, he’s changed putters, has a top 10 finish at the Cognizant Classic, and a T13 finish at The Players to his name.
Koepka has more major championship wins (nine) than regular ones, and PGA Tour wins (four) in his career. If a big game player exists in golf, it’s him. He knows how to peak at the right moment, building up his form going into the major championships.
And there’s a key statistic that shows he’s doing exactly the same this year as he eyes up his first Green Jacket.

And that’s bringing his greatest strength into play, his iron play.
At the Valpsar Championship , where Koepka is in the top 10 after two rounds, he gained 3. 6 strokes to the field on approach heading into the weekend. He was the fourth-ranked player in the field with his irons during Friday’s play.
