Brooks Koepka has landed another huge payday from LIV Golf – but had to watch his little brother slip to relegation.<\/p>\n
Brooks, 33, is third in current standings following a third win on the tour in Jeddah having come through in a playoff against Talor Gooch. Chase, 29, sits in the drop zone having failed to pick up a single point after turning his back on the PGA Tour.<\/p>\n
During the tournament, Brooks said of his struggling sibling: \u201cI know he\u2019s working hard. I know he\u2019s been trying. We\u2019ve been practicing together quite a bit. Honestly, he\u2019s struggling a little bit. I\u2019ve been there. <\/p>\n

"We\u2019ve all been there. Every golfer has. It\u2019s part of it. You look at it, he was playing mini-tour golf 16 months ago. I don\u2019t think the last year and a half has been too bad for him."<\/p>\n
