Brooks Koepka at the Masters: Tee time, odds to win, injury update, recent LIV Golf results
Brooks Koepka will continue his pursuit of a sixth career pro golf major championship this week at the 2024 Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia.
The Palm Beach County native and Cardinal Newman product has never won at Augusta National Golf Club despite his decorated career as a major champion. He entered Sunday with a lead but finished second to Jon Rahm on a day he had to play 30 holes due to weather delays.
Koepka, who's now a captain with LIV Golf, will have a reunion of sorts this week with former PGA Tour rivals like Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler and others competing at the Masters.
Here's a look at Koepka's 2024 Masters tee time, odds to win, previous Masters finishes and more:

Brooks Koepka last five tournaments with LIV Golf
Koepka's play with LIV Golf has been trending in the wrong direction over five tournaments this year.
He shot 8-under to finish seventh individually at LIV Mayakoba in early February in his best finish of the season. He finished 13th (-6) and 12th (-9) at LIV Las Vegas and Jeddah respectively before placing 28th (-6) at LIV Hong Kong.
Koepka suffered the worst individual finish of his LIV Golf career last week in Miami, taking 46th (+7) in a disastrous performance at Trump National Doral Miami.
In team golf, Koepka's Smash GC, featuring Talor Gooch, Jason Kokrak and Graeme McDowell, won its first tournament this year at LIV Las Vegas.
Brooks Koepka on PGA Tour, LIV Golf difference
Koepka said Tuesday it was "subjective" as to whether he was no longer competing alongside the world's best golfers while playing with LIV Golf.
He noted PGA Tour players often were selective with their schedules and did not necessarily compete in every scheduled event.
“The best players in the world never got together week in and week out," Koepka said. "When you look at the tour schedule, it was majors and then WGC … Those were pretty much the 10 events where everyone was for sure going to be there. And then it was just kind of sprinkled in everywhere else.”
