Tiger Woods is arguably one of the most prominent figures in the world of golf, and matching his stature is something that very few players can even contemplate. He boasts an impressive record with 15 major championships, 82 PGA Tour wins, and 41 European Tour wins to his name.

Not many golfers have come close to achieving the level of success set by the Masters winner. However, Brooks Koepka, gearing up for the $25 Million LIV Chicago Event, has boldly expressed his ambition to surpass the legendary Tiger Woods. In a recent interview, he revealed his desire to challenge and ultimately outshine the golf icon.

Brooks Koepka’s strategy to surpass Tiger Woods

The LIV golfer has left his mark in golf by securing a spot in the Ryder Cup, even though he switched over from the PGA Tour. Captain Zach Johnson believes Brooks Koepka is made for the “biggest of stages,” and there’s none grander than the Ryder Cup.

But Koepka’s ambitions don’t stop there. During a recent appearance on the Pardon My Take interview, when asked about the number of majors he aims to win, the host was convinced that Brooksie had a specific number in mind and urged him to share it with his fans.

To which Koepka replied, “I feel like I can get to 12… I’ve already blown one to Phil, so that would be six, Tiger, that’s seven… Hank, that’s eight… Gary Woodland, so that’s nine… I should have nine.”

The host went a step further and asked him if he could ever surpass Tiger Woods. He responded confidently, “I hope so. That would be great, right? That was the benchmark, 14 until I gave him 15.”
