Brooks Koepka's win at the PGA Championship on Sunday wasn't just a big moment for him, it was a massive statement for everyone associated with LIV Golf.
After several of the best players in the world like Koepka, Dustin Johnson and Bryson DeChambeau left the PGA Tour to join LIV—which is backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund—they were criticized for just chasing a bigger payday.
Their response was that they still wanted to compete and win at the highest level.
And Koepka's win may have helped prove that.
"It validates everything we've said from the beginning: That we're competing at the highest level and we have the ability to win major championships," DeChambeau said.
