Brooks Koepka plans to play at the Masters this week less than a month after undergoing surgery on his right knee. When he initially suffered the injury, reports suggested he d be out six to eight months. Koepka is defying those expectations and letting everyone know about it on Twitter.
Koepka posted the following to his account on Sunday:
Late Sunday afternoon, Koepka was at Augusta playing a four-hole loop with caddie Ricky Elliott. Just four days from the start of the Masters, he s prepping to play. That s less than a month after having surgery on his right knee. It was an injury so severe that it forced Koepka to pull out of the 2021 Players Championship in early March. He hasn t played on tour since.

majors in the same season. he won the pga championship and then got second at masters and the u.s. open this year. koepka going to look to keep that dominant run when he tees off at 8 a.m. eastern. this year s open championship is taking place at royal port rush in northern ireland. koepka s caddy, ricky elliott, grew up at port rush and has played that course numerous times. put it this way, i don t think when he grew up he ever thought there would be an open championship here. to top it off i don t think he ever thought he would be a part of it and, you know, to be caddying and to be able to win one here would be maybe a legend, wouldn t it? he already is. it would be cool to see him win. and weather never great at the british open. that s the case right now. low 60s and raining this morning. tiger, he s going to tee off a little after 10 this morning.
