Analysis: Great coup for PGA Tour if Koepka returns<\/p>\n
Sky Sports News reporter Jamie Weir, speaking after Koepka’s LIV Golf departure but before news emerged of him reapplying for PGA Tour membership:<\/p>\n
“Koepka has always been about prioritising his family, golf has always been a means to an end for him, it hasn’t been his life, his sole purpose has been to look after his family.<\/p>\n
“He joined LIV because his body was breaking down. When he fully recovered he was asked if he regretted the decision and intimated he kind of did.<\/p>\n
“He was a golfer that seemed to have buyer’s remorse, and I don’t think his decision to step away comes as a big surprise.<\/p>\n
“It would be a great coup for the PGA Tour if they could get back a player of Koepka’s stature, a proven champion and one of the greatest players of his generation.<\/p>\n
“Will they create a little loophole for him to come back sooner?”<\/p>\n
