Brooks Koepka has not entirely dismissed speculation about a potential return to the PGA Tour but made it clear that he remains committed to fulfilling his current contract with LIV Golf. The five-time major champion addressed recent comments suggesting he is eager to rejoin the PGA Tour but maintained that his focus remains on his present obligations.
The speculation began when remarks surfaced about Koepka’s possible interest in returning to the tour. While he acknowledged exchanging text messages regarding the topic, he stated that no in-depth discussions about his future have taken place.
“Everybody seems to have their own opinion, and no one asks me,” Koepka said ahead of this week’s LIV event in Singapore. “Like I’ve said before, I’m not in those rooms. I’ve got a contract obligation out here to fulfill, and then we’ll see what happens.”
Koepka made the switch from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf in June 2022, signing a deal reportedly worth over $100 million that runs through 2026. While speculation about his future continues, he remains focused on his game and current commitments.
“I don’t know where I’m going, so I don’t know how everybody else does,” he said. “Right now, I’m just focused on how do I play better, how do I play better in the majors, how does this team win, and then we’ll figure out next year and how to play better again.”
Koepka is set to defend his title in Singapore but has struggled in 2025, currently sitting 22nd in the individual standings after three events. His team, Smash GC, has also had a difficult season, ranking last among the 13 teams.
Reflecting on his recent struggles, Koepka acknowledged his slow start but remained optimistic. “I’ve been terrible, but I feel like I’m definitely playing a lot better than what the results are,” he said. “It’s just sometimes that happens. That’s golf.”
In 2023, Koepka nearly won the Masters before claiming his third PGA Championship, but 2024 proved to be a more challenging year. While he finished fifth in the individual LIV standings, his performance in the majors left much to be desired, failing to record a single top-25 finish. His results included a tie for 45th at Augusta, where he will compete again next month.
“The major performances weren’t there,” he admitted. “Typically, I’m a slow starter. I’ve never gotten off any season I’ve played professionally to a hot start. Usually, it takes a couple rounds just to get going. But we’re running out of time here for Augusta, so something better change.”
The drive to compete at a higher level in major tournaments has fueled discussions about Koepka’s long-term plans. While he has not outright denied speculation about a return to the PGA Tour, he insists that he is uncertain about his future beyond his existing contract.
“I’ve got nothing,” he said. “Everybody else seems to know more than I do.”
