Koepka got off to a nightmare start at the Maridoe Golf Club with triple bogeys on the fifth and seventh holes.
He was seven over par by the time he got to the ninth and his frustrations then boiled over.
A wild tee shot veered to the left and Koepka angrily smashed his club into the ground.
He then turned to a tee marker and smacked it off the course.

Another added: "Unacceptable behaviour. Anyone doing this needs stiff penalties."
A third wrote: "These pros need to stop with the club throws, ground pounds and course destruction."
