Brooks Koepka will be determined to clinch the
CJ Cup for the second time when he competes in this year's tournament.
The American star is placed ninth in the Official World Golf Rankings and he is a former world number one.
Koepka won the CJ Cup by four strokes at Nine Bridges in South Korea in 2018 with Gary Woodland finishing second.

The JC Cup victory took Koepka to the top of the Official World Golf Rankings and he displaced Dustin Johnson for the world’s top ranking.
The two-time US Open winner started the year 2021 very well by winning Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale in February.
Koepka then finished in a tie for second place at the PGA Championship as his final round 74 saw him finish two shots behind Phil Mickelson in May.
The 31-year-old went on to play on the U.S team in the 2021 Ryder Cup and they won 19–9 against the European Team last month.

"I'm like glass, so I wouldn't say I'm 100 percent: left knee, right knee, broken, man," Koepka, who has struggled with injuries this year, said after the Ryder Cup.
"I feel fine. I feel as good as I've felt in a long time. Over the past week and a half, I did a lot of work on it with Derek Samuel, my trainer.
"He was down with me for about eight days, so able to kind of work everything out and make sure it's fine but I feel good and I'm ready to go as much or as little as they want.''
Justin Thomas is the most decorated player in the history of CJ Open having won two titles.
