Brooks Koepka looked great during his first round of the PGA Championship at Bethpage Black.
Even before he took to the course to shoot an impressive 7-under 63, Koepka was already looking sharp, thanks to a haircut from barber Q-Stylezz.
Perusing through his Instagram page, Q-Stylezz appears to have helped out quite a few athletes with a fresh cut, including Serge Ibaka and Sterling Shepard.
Koepka showed his thanks for the trim in the form of a massive tip. In $4$4, the barber showed off $1,000 cash left by the reigning Player of the Year.
$4, the tip was $800 on top of the price of Q-Stylezz's services. $4 that the tip was $500. But regardless of what the list price was for Koepka's cut, it's clear he left a healthy extra bit of cash as a thank you.
