Koepka shot 3-under 68 with four birdies and one bogey in the final round of the third event of the LIV Golf 2023 season (total prize money $25 million), held on the 3rd at Orange County National (par 71, 7,248 yards) in Orlando, Florida, USA, finishing with a total score of 15-under 198 to claim victory. He edged out Sebastian Mu?oz (Colombia) by one stroke for second place.

This is his second LIV Golf title, following his win at the final seventh event of the LIV Series held last October in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Koepka is the first player to win two individual titles since the LIV Series launched in June last year. He earned $4 million for the individual victory and an additional $375,000, which is 25% of the team event runner-up prize, totaling $4,375,000 (approximately 5.73 billion KRW) in prize money.

Koepka will compete in the season’s first major, the Masters, held on the 6th in Augusta, Georgia, USA. Before joining LIV Golf last year, he was known as a "major hunter" with four major wins. He previously won the US Open in 2017 and 2018, and the PGA Championship in 2018 and 2019. His best result at the Masters is a runner-up finish in 2019.
