Brooks Koepka of the United States, dubbed a "major hunter" for winning five of his nine PGA Tour titles at major championships, will join TGL, the simulator golf league, starting with the 2027 season.
TGL announced on its website on the 27th, Korea time, that Koepka will play for Motor City Golf Club, a new entrant to the league from the 2027 season. Based in Detroit, Motor City Golf Club is TGL's first expansion franchise. The addition expands the league to seven teams from six. A detailed schedule for the 2027 season has not yet been released.
Koepka has five major titles, including two U.S. Opens (2017 and 2018) and three PGA Championships (2018, 2019 and 2023). He moved to LIV Golf in 2022 and returned to the PGA Tour in January this year. He entered 16 events this season and made the cut 11 times, but managed just one top-10 finish, suggesting he has yet to fully regain his earlier form.
"I had the chance to watch TGL in person, and it showed something completely new in golf," Koepka said. "The energy at SoFi Center, the fast pace of play and the team atmosphere were especially impressive, and I wanted to be part of it." He added, "I want to compete alongside my teammates and bring a title to Detroit."
