WITB: Old and new gear helps Brooks Koepka to fifth major

Brooks Koepka claimed the US PGA Championship after a dominant display at Oak Hill.

The 33-year-old is now a five-time major winner and seems to be a specialist in this major championship in particular, notching three wins in the last six years.

The LIV Golf member’s final round of 67 was enough to hold off a chasing pack that included Viktor Hovland and Scottie Scheffler, with Koepka’s long game the key to his win.

The new world No.13 finished the week leading the strokes gained: total stat, while from tee to green, he ranked second in the field.

He ranked fifth in driving distance with an average of 318.9 yards off the tee, while hitting 57% of the fairways.

While he was excellent through the green, Koepka’s great play extended to the flatstick too.

Over the week, he averaged 26 putts per round, which was the best in the field.

All this was achieved with a bag that’s mostly made up of Srixon and Cleveland equipment, but with some interesting additions in there too.

He still games a TaylorMade 3-wood first released in 2017 and a Nike driving iron that has been with him for what feels like forever.

Here’s the full rundown on what is in Brooks Koepka’s bag.
