Brooks Koepka about joining the LIV Golf Invitational Series
Koepka was asked a few questions earlier about the LIV Golf Series, where he tried to avoid any answers regarding the matter in an interview during the U.S. Open. He said, “I don’t understand. I’m trying to focus on the U.S. Open, man. I legitimately don’t get it. I’m tired of the conversations.” The golfer also added, “I don’t know why you guys keep doing that. The more legs you give it, the more you keep talking about it. Y’all are throwing a black cloud over the US Open, and I think that sucks.”
