Brooks Koepka charged in front with a spotless front nine, highlighted by an eagle on the par-five eighth and a birdie at the second to reach the turn at 10-under
Brooks Koepka took advantage of ideal morning scoring conditions to put the LIV Golf flag three shots clear at the top of the Masters’ early second-round leaderboard on Friday, as rain and thunderstorms took aim at Augusta National.
Start times were pushed ahead by 30 minutes in an effort to get as much play in as possible before forecasted thunderstorms sweep into Augusta. While Rahm, winner of three events already this season, was always expected to contend at the year’s first major, Koepka was not.Tiger Woods, who has never missed the Masters cut as a professional, will likely need to improve on his opening round two-over 74 if he is to keep his streak alive.
