Brooks Koepka once had a reputation as a major-winning machine until injuries halted his momentum and stymied his confidence but he appears to have his motor purring again after another solid outing at the Masters on Friday.
Overnight co-leader Koepka, who won four majors in eight starts at one point, was in cruise control throughout his second round as he fired a flawless five-under-par 67 in ideal early conditions to reach 12 under on the week at Augusta National.
It is a stunning turnaround for Koepka, who once considered quitting golf as he went through rigorous rehab for a myriad of injuries, including a torn patella tendon in his left knee and a labrum injury in his left hip. "I'm able to do everything I need to. And the confidence is there. The confidence was lost just because of my knee and that was it."
