Koepka’s Investment in Woods’ and McIlroy’s TMRW Sports Fuels Speculation

Brooks Koepka has made a remarkable investment. The five-time major winner acquired shares in an investment fund called Locker Room, which also holds shares in TMRW Sports through its portfolio. The company owned by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, for example, is the parent company of TGL, which is finally launching its indoor golf spectacle in January. ‘Locker Room offers me the opportunity to actively support companies that are really close to my heart and align with my personal interests and values,’ says Koepka about his commitment, which puts him in good company. ‘Big names’ such as Lewis Hamilton, Gareth Bale, Steph Curry, Justin Timberlake and sports magnates Arthur Blank and John Henry have been investors from the very beginning.

And of course, with this very indirect approach to LIV opponent Woods, rumours of a return to the PGA Tour by Koepka, who is nominally one of the stars of the LIV Golf League, will be competing with Bryson DeChambeau in Las Vegas in December for the ‘showdown’ between the two rival circuits against Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy and has already started teasing his designated team partner and former favourite enemy. Seen in this light, it is safe to speak of a double speculation model.
