Summary
Koepka finished 94th in the FedExCup standings after a T67 at the Wyndham Championship, ending his first season back on the PGA Tour before next week's playoff opener in Memphis.
A 70 on Sunday left him 3-under for the week and 19 shots behind winner Michael Brennan, extending a season in which he failed to post a top-10 finish.
The five-time major champion said the result was "pretty pathetic" for a player he believes is still in his prime, blaming his slump largely on poor putting and "zero confidence" on the greens.
In 16 starts, Koepka made 11 cuts with a best finish of T9 at the Cognizant Classic and a T12 at the Masters, saying he still loved being back on tour despite the disappointment.
His return from LIV Golf also carried financial limits: the PGA Tour estimated he gave up about $85 million in potential earnings and he was ineligible for the 2026 $100 million FedExCup bonus program.
