Where LIV golfers stand heading into 2023 Masters Sunday final round

A LIV golfer has a chance to become the 2023 Masters champion.

Brooks Koepka can make history at Augusta National, too.

He can become just the sixth player to lead the Masters wire-to-wire, joining Craig Wood (1941), Arnold Palmer (1960), Jack Nicklaus (1972), Raymond Floyd (1976) and Jordan Spieth (2015).

Koepka is the leader at 11 under for the tournament entering the final round, set to begin Sunday at 12:30 p.m. Jon Rahm is second at 9 under, and Norway’s Viktor Hovland is third at 8 under. With a win, Koepka would capture his fifth major title, something only 19 men have done in history.
