That Masters win brought his total of Major successes to 15 and he is a four-time PGA Championship victor. Koepka is the favourite with Dustin Johnson also a leading contender and that duo finished joint second at the Masters recently.

Do you see the winner coming from that group or someone else? Let us know who you think will be celebrating on Sunday.
