Koepka Rejoins PGA Tour Under One-Time Return Window

Brooks Koepka will return to the PGA Tour at the Farmers Insurance Open in late January under a one-time returning-member program after leaving LIV Golf. He will donate $5 million to charity, forego 2026 FedExCup bonus payments, and be ineligible for the Tour’s player equity program from 2026–30, a move the Tour says could cost him $50–85 million. The window also opens potential recalls for Rahm, DeChambeau and Smith before the February 2 deadline; Phil Mickelson remains ineligible. Koepka will also play the Phoenix Open and must participate in at least 15 co-sponsored/approved events in 2026.
