Koepka was able to put in a 50-foot eagle putt on the 15th hole to close with a 5-under 66 that bested Martin Laird, who lost a part of his lead after registering a bogey on the 17th hole.
In addition to beating out Laird, the 24-year-old Koepka also edged out Hideki Matsuyama, Bubba Watson and Ryan Palmer.
