Liv Golf Jeddah - Final RD - Brooks Koepka #golf #livgolf

Brooks on the tee at one. Drove it much better yesterday than he did on day one. Must have some confidence. In this club at least. Maybe something to prove as well. Having not been a part of the story through six events. Yeah, the ball will. The club's not. Yeah. Came out low, but it looks pretty good. Something like this before. In May. June, May. This year. But it was different. There was an inflammation in the tendons. It's 20 miles an hour. And it's like I said, it's quartered. It's going to play slightly differently. They've got to make adjustments. Even with a lob wedge. You heard him. A little left. Patience personified. And it is. It's a long way. A lot further left than he wanted. And a tough putt, David. Through the fringe. And it's the high point on the front edge of the green. That's going to throw it. OK. Oh boy, this looks good. Good swing there. It's a wonderful shot. Brooks Koepke then for the outright lead. 6-2 on the opening day. So he done. Yeah, that's me. Or thereabouts. Koepke, driver. Yeah, off the right. It's going to start up the right side. Hopefully. Oh, smashed it. Perfect. In the top three. Dustin Johnson is already our season-long winner. $18 million. Second place gets $8 million. Third place gets $4 million. Cameron Smith is in fourth at the moment. Schwartzel, he's there as well in fifth. With a wedge, you can just clear the fringe. Use a little slope. That kicks down towards the hole. But putter it is. A little squirrelly bounce to the right. That's always the problem when you putt through the fringe. See a Brooks Koepke. And he does. Two good front runners. Two great front runners in front right now. It's a big day for this man too. He's got a point to prove. And we know he plays well when he's got a chip on his shoulder. That is impressive tee shot. Brooks wasting no time. Get down. A little low. If they win, they will get fifth place as long as the Majestics who are playing well today finish below fifth here in Jeddah. And that would mean that Smash would get first pick. If they win, in the time in between Boston and Chicago, he's found his form in Bangkok. And here in Jeddah, four off the lead. Koepke. Swing is looking so good with the drive. It really is. Ricky Elliott just told me, it's an eight iron. Knew it was long. Oh, that's going to be just. The devil is from there. A nightmare chip. Kicks straight right on him. Just didn't fly quite far enough. Needs to stop. This is a little encouragement for Peter Uehlein. That's what separates you guys, Bubba, from. Me. Well, hey, I didn't say I didn't say I wouldn't take a score. I'm saying he wouldn't take a score. We know better. We know better with you. Strong stuff there, though. Salvaging a bogey. Pummels it. Also finds the sand. Here's Brooks at seven. Well, we wait for DJ. Hit it heavy. Bunker shot a tough one. Right. I don't think we'll impress him. The lead is down to two. It was three when we were looking. This looks good, though. Brooks just misses. To the middle of the fairway. This is what Brooks did yesterday. He's doing the same again today. That looks ideal. Beautiful hard slider. Tried their hand at this game. Can relate, Phil. Koepke. Fabulous shot there. Brooks Koepke. Ties for the lead with Sergio Garcia. Will anyone take control? Learned nicely. Likely more to come. Oh boy. Where the **** is that wind, dude? That's off the green. Didn't think that through. Bogey or worse here. Obviously worse. And he's in a tie with Garcia. Quite the scene. Only thing I've run is a tab. That's well played. Toughest win for a right-handed golfer. Moment. Third in the overall season. Long standings. Carries with it. A bonus of four million dollars. What a putt. This is two different levels to negotiate. This is 50-50 whether it be a free putt or not. We have a tie. At the top again. Brooks on the tee at 13. Turning left. No idea who that could be anywhere. Oh, it's drifting left just a touch. That's not bad at all. That's a great shot. He's due one. Not going in. Weak effort right there. Wow. Did not see that coming. Back to the tee. Three bogeys in a row. Gotta find the fairway here. Gotta avoid the bunkers. And you. Putt got me. 50-50 bit of footwork there, Dom. Almost. You don't want to go over the back here. You don't want to go long. Because then you're coming back downwind. You'd rather be short. Even where the bunker that Sergio is. Not the worst spot. Oh, this is. This is way over. Ricky Elliott saw a flyer there. Where Brooks did not. Balls that they're hitting. They're not entirely reliable. Brooks not. Over the back. Gotta spin a little. Yeah, that's something. At least six or seven feet. The lead by two. Just a few moments ago. Back on the tee. Brooks had to remove. A lot of stones around the ball. Oh, what a shot. That's a terrific effort from there. Which comes with it. A bonus of four million dollars. Brooks Koepke. For a tie of the lead. Yes. That's a huge over. For Brooks Koepke. Off that tee shot. Man, what a three. Nine iron. It's headed right. Past the edge of the green. Yeah. Wasn't enough club to reach that bunker. Or on the Court Ferry Tour. That's a good lag. It's 388. You'd think they'd get close. But going with the conservative play. Wants to find the short stuff. It looks like he's found it. Try and control. A short iron. And. No. He's got to go over the bunker. Not much room to work with. The ball sitting down. A little bit straight downwind. He must play 10, 15 feet left. I feel. Otherwise he might go over the back. He lined up straight at it. That's a great shot from there. Gonna break from his left. Just a touch. Maybe a cup. There's two bunkers to the right. You can't go for the green from there. Even in the left rough. You can go for it. Well, it sits up. 228 to the front. 256 to the pin. I think he'll take where he hit it to yesterday. Just the front third of the green. Oh, this is outright. Headed to the bunkers. The first one. That is not the easiest up and down from there. Good lie. This is going to be a chunk and run. But. Everything runs towards this hole. He just needs to fly it halfway. Doesn't have to fly it any closer than that. Even a third of the way. It should get to the hole. Pretty good. Oh! All the world. It looks like it might miss to the right.
