PONTE VEDRA, Fla. — Brooks Koepka on Wednesday dropped a serious hint that he wants back on the PGA Tour once his LIV Golf contract is up. The five-time major championship winner responded for the first time publicly about comments Fred Couples made recently about Koepka’s desire to leave LIV Golf and return to the PGA Tour.

Koepka’s comments were more circumspect than those of reigning U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau, who last week denied rumors that he sought a return to the PGA Tour and expressed his continued support of LIV.
