The cumulation of severe knee, wrist and hip injuries threatened to compromise a career that has produced four major titles. He knows he\u2019ll eventually need knee replacement surgery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">But he was determined to recover and return to the kind of elite-level golf he expects from himself. On Sunday at the LIV Golf Invitational Jeddah presented by ROSHN, all that hard work paid off, as he beat Smash GC teammate Peter Uihlein with a birdie on the third playoff hole to capture his first LIV Golf individual title and his first worldwide win in 20 months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">In addition, his Smash GC, which also includes Brooks\u2019 brother Chase and Jason Kokrak, won its first team title of the season by 6 strokes over Fireballs GC, last week\u2019s winner in Bangkok. Crushers GC claimed third place via tiebreaker over 4 Aces GC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">The combination of the team victory, and battling against Uihlein \u2013 his good friend, ex-roommate and now teammate \u2013 made for a special weekend at Royal Greens Golf and Country Club.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_443\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-443\" style=\"width: 635px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-443\" src=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"635\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0419_1b916408-7f69-4234-89f0-61723866e30b_20221012103118.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 635px) 100vw, 635px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-443\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA &#8211; OCTOBER 12: Anirban Lahiri of Crushers GC plays a shot from the 16th hole to a floating green as part of a LIV to Give charity initiative using a biodegradable golf ball filled with fish food during a practice round prior to the LIV Golf Invitational &#8211; Jeddah at Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club on October 12, 2022 in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia.

While the top four will receive day-one byes at the Miami Team Championship on Oct. 28-30, Smash will get to choose its opponent for the first day of match play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">\u201cI kept thinking about it all week,\u201d Koepka said. \u201cBeing able to pick who we are going to play is going to be important. We\u2019re excited for Miami.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">Sunday\u2019s playoff was the second of the inaugural LIV Golf season, with Dustin Johnson winning in dramatic fashion in Boston with an eagle on the first playoff hole. It took three playoff holes, all at the par-5 18th, to determine the winner in Jeddah.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">After Koepka and Uihlein each birdied the 18th in regulation \u2013 eliminating the hopes of Sergio Garcia and Joaquin Niemann, who had finished at 11 under \u2013 they each produced birdies in the first two playoff holes. Uihlein, in particular, showed off some skillful wedge play to set up his tap-in birdie putts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">But on the third playoff hole, Uihlein\u2019s luck ran out, as his third shot from a greenside bunker flew past the pin and rolled into the water. After Uihlein missed his chip for par, Koepka made it a moot point by rolling in his birdie putt with the skies darkening.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_445\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-445\" style=\"width: 638px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-445\" src=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"638\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT2_0245_91c6bb8f-89f6-4671-8ada-3ebb9685ef52_20221011012302-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-445\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA &#8211; OCTOBER 11: Team Captain Bryson DeChambeau of Crushers GC plays a shot on the driving range during a practice round prior to the LIV Golf Invitational &#8211; Jeddah at Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club on October 11, 2022 in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia.

A victory would have given him not only the $4 million tournament prize but also second place in the season-long Individual Champion final standings, with the bonus prize of $8 million. Instead, he won $2.125 million for finishing second, and $4 million for finishing third in the season-long race (in addition to his $750,000 share of the $3 million team victory).<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">\u201cConsolation,\u201d said Uihlein, who had entered Sunday with a one-shot lead over Koepka. \u201c\u2026 Still a good chunk of change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">Considering that his front nine consisted of two double bogeys and a three-putt for par, Uihlein could easily have been discouraged heading to the back nine. But he responded with a bogey-free 3 under on his final nine holes to close out an even-par round of 70 and make the playoff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">\u201cFought back and played solid on the back,\u201d he said. \u201cHoled some nice putts for par. I felt like if I can keep staying one back of the lead going into the last couple, I could at least give myself a chance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">Indeed, several players were in the mix down the stretch, including Garcia, Niemann, Matthew Wolff, Paul Casey and even Dustin Johnson, who made a late charge after an eagle. But ultimately it came down to Koepka and Uihlein, who had never before played in the same group until Sunday when they were in the final group.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-446\" style=\"width: 621px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-446\" src=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"621\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/CT3_0023_275e6528-9317-488d-9052-a4acfb755562_20221011012302.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA &#8211; OCTOBER 11: Team Captain Bryson DeChambeau of Crushers GC plays a shot on the driving range during a practice round prior to the LIV Golf Invitational &#8211; Jeddah at Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club on October 11, 2022 in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia.

There\u2019s a lot of rocks in those bunkers. Obviously the first few were executed really well but it was only a matter of time before something like that [his last bunker shot into the water] was going to happen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Jason Kokrak (on Smash GC):<\/b><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">Practicing together, we saw Brooks playing some incredible golf. We\u2019ve seen Pete all year play really, really well. Chase has been absolutely solid from top to bottom all year. I\u2019ve been kind of dragging behind, but I show up when they need me. I\u2019m looking forward to Miami. I think we\u2019ve got a good group and we are all trending in the right direction and we are starting to play our best golf. I don\u2019t think anybody wants to play us in match play right now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Chase Koepka (on Smash GC):<\/b><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\">The individual wins must feel pretty good but these team wins are pretty cool, too.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>PERFORMANCE STATS<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Fairways hit\u00a0<\/b>\u2013 Laurie Canter, Matthew Wolff 79% (11 of 14 fairways)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Driving distance<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Dustin Johnson, 338.2-yard average<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Greens in regulation<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Richard Bland, Joaquin Niemann, 89% (16 of 18 greens)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Fewest putts<\/b>\u00a0\u00ad\u2013 Branden Grace, 25<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Lowest round<\/b>\u00a0\u00ad\u2013 Joaquin Niemann, Bernd Wiesberger, 65<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-c25\"><b>Most birdies<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Joaquin Niemann, 8<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_444\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-444\" style=\"width: 578px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-444\" src=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"578\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/teeboxtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/T3_1440_f574d263-38d0-4284-8be3-d46030b622d9_20221014115725-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 578px) 100vw, 578px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA &#8211; OCTOBER 14: Charl Schwartzel of Stinger GC plays his shot from the third tee during day one of the LIV Golf Invitational &#8211; Jeddah at Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club on October 14, 2022 in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia.
