Brooks Koepka, the current PGA Championship holder and a prominent figure in the LIV Golf League, has been making waves in the golfing world. Despite his affiliation with the league, Koepka has chosen not to display any of the LIV Golf logos on his apparel or bag.
Having made a significant move from the PGA Tour to the LIV Golf League in June 2022, Koepka has solidified his position as a key player in the 54-hole circuit. His victory at the 2023 PGA Championship marked a historic moment as the only player to win a Major while being an active LIV golfer.
However, it is interesting to note that Koepka, who serves as the captain of his LIV team, has opted to stick with his exclusive sponsorship deals with Nike for apparel and Srixon for his tour bag. Despite leading his LIV team, Koepka stands out as the only squad member not sporting Smash GC apparel or headwear, unlike the rest of his teammates.
In a recent partnership, Koepka’s team joined forces with Redvanly, a company that the other Smash GC players have embraced. While Koepka’s teammates have praised the fit and style of the Redvanly line, the captain himself has chosen to maintain his loyalty to Nike and Srixon.
It remains to be seen whether Koepka’s decision to forego LIV Golf logos will have any impact on his performance at the upcoming PGA Championship. As he gears up to defend his title and potentially make history at Valhalla, Koepka’s choice to prioritize his existing sponsorships over league affiliations raises intriguing questions within the golfing community.
