Brooks Koepka surges with 66 to make the cut | Round 2 | The Cognizant Classic | 2026

In the second round of the 2026 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches, Brooks Koepka shot a 5-under 66 to get to 2-under after 36 holes, making his second cut of the season.

The PGA TOUR kicks off its Florida swing at the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches, returning to PGA National Resort (Champion Course), one of the circuit’s most demanding and recognizable venues. Defending champion Joe Highsmith looks to repeat after last year’s breakthrough 19-under performance, where he rallied from four shots back with two rounds of 64 on the weekend to win by two. He’ll attempt to become the first back-to-back winner of the event since Jack Nicklaus in 1977-78. Brooks Koepka headlines the field, making his ninth start at PGA National, where his best finish was a runner-up in 2019. Ryan Gerard arrives as the highest-ranked player in the field in both the FedExCup standings and Official World Golf Ranking following consecutive runner-up finishes to open the season. Shane Lowry and Max Homa add further depth to a competitive lineup. The Champion Course (par 71, 7,223 yards) remains a formidable test, with water in play on 15 holes and the decisive “Bear Trap” stretch (Nos. 15-17) once again set to play a pivotal role down the stretch.

  10. Look for Brooks to be sidelined with lower back issues soon. He is "hawking" his big left toe.
    This is what has ended so many pga careers.
    unfortunately professional trainers and coaches seemingly know very little about human anatomy.

    They simply have to watch No 1, Scotty releases his big left toe and entire left foot , just as Jack Nicklaus did for his entire career. Hawking the big left toe, is deadly for the nerves connected to the lower vertebrae.

  18. Crazy how quickly he racked up 5 majors. It took Rory until last year to reach that milestone, with 35 other titles in between. What an insanely difficult sport to maintain a consistent performance. Most of them fade away after 1 or 2 wins and you never see them again.
