Brooks Koepka switched gear this week at the Cognizant Classic, posting a solid 5-under 66 on Friday at PGA National.
Brooks Koepka has made a notable equipment adjustment during the PGA Tour event at PGA National this week, as he continues his pursuit at the Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches.
The four-time major champion posted a round of 5-under 66 on Friday at the Champions Course in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. According to reports from GolfWRX, the equipment change appears to be playing a role in his performance as the tournament progresses.
Mid-Tournament Adjustments
Equipment modifications during tournaments are not uncommon among professional golfers, though they typically reflect either preferences that emerge during competition or responses to course conditions. Koepka’s adjustment this week suggests he may be fine-tuning his setup to better suit PGA National’s layout.
The Champions Course at PGA National has consistently challenged the world’s best players with its demanding par-70 design and water hazards that come into play on numerous holes. A solid second-round score of 66 indicates that whatever changes Koepka made are contributing positively to his ball-striking and overall performance.
Koepka changed the Srixon Z-Star Diamond for the Titleist Pro V1x and was seen using the new ball during the second round at Cognizant Classic. He remains among the tournament’s top contenders as play continues through the weekend.
