After leaving LIV Golf, Brooks Koepka would have requested his return to the PGA Tour.

A statement from Koepka’s management team said Koepka’s decision to leave LIV was “guided” by family and that he wanted to spend more time at home.

“Brooks will continue to be a strong supporter of LIV Golf and wants to see the league and its players continue to be successful. Brooks remains passionate about the game of golf and will keep fans informed about what’s to come,” the statement said.

The PGA Tour has said that anyone who defected to the LIV would be suspended by the Tour. His last non-major PGA event was the 2022 Valspar Championship played in March.

According to ESPN, which reported on Koepka’s reinstatement request, the tour will soon begin the disciplinary and reinstatement process, which will include “thoughtful input from the board of directors, including player managers.”

After Koepka left LIV, the PGA Tour offered a cryptic statement.

“Brooks Koepka is a highly accomplished professional and we wish him and his family continued success. The PGA Tour continues to offer the best professional golfers the most competitive, challenging and lucrative environment in which to pursue greatness,” the tour said.

Rumors have constantly circulated that Koepka has had buyer’s remorse since joining LIV Golf in a deal he revealed was worth nine figures. Koepka was one of the first big-name golfers to join the Saudi-funded tour and admitted at the 2023 Masters that his wounds played an important role in the move, which guaranteed a huge salary.

In March, Koepka admitted that he didn’t “know where he was going” once his contract was up. Koepka’s contract reportedly had one more year left on his contract.

Koepka took the golf world by storm several years ago, winning four majors in a two-year span. However, injuries derailed him for a time. After a torn patella tendon, he lost his dominant form, winning only one event in a three-year span before his move to LIV, often finding himself outside the cut line.

He joined LIV after missing the cut in the Master 2022 and finished tied for 55th and 55th at the PGA Championship and US Open, respectively, that year. Koepka was reinvigorated in 2023, winning the PGA Championship just a month after finishing tied for second at The Masters, earning him a spot on that year’s Ryder Cup team.

However, his best finish in a major since 2024 was a tie for 12th at this year’s US Open at Oakmont. It was his only top-25 finish at a major in that span, and he missed the other three cuts.

Koepka is eligible to play in all four majors this year, even if suspended by the PGA, due to his 2023 victory at Oak Hill. The Majors are not PGA sanctioned events.
