Brooks Koepka was on his way to joyously lifting the Masters trophy until PGA Tour’s Jon Rahm shattered his victory dreams. And believe it or not, the golfer is extremely disappointed with how things turned out to be in the last round. While most fans would look at Rahm’s win as an individual victory, there are some who are considering it as the PGA Tour’s win against LIV Golf. However, when asked about his views on the matter, Koepka had the perfect response for the poky question!

Brooks Koepka takes a stand for his fellow LIV Golf players

Brooks Koepka is certainly one of the most talented players in the LIV Golf League. Having left his PGA Tour career behind, the golfer had several fans on his former tour. In fact, the golfer earned great fame after he won four major championships in three years. However, he has never been able to make it to the win at the Masters Tournament. Although he showed superb skills at the 2019 Masters as well, he had to settle for a T2 finish in the final round.

When asked about his perception of LIV Golf’s authority on the sport, Koepka said, “We’re still the same people”. Not to forget that there have been several claims about LIV Golf players having accepted Greg Norman’s money-led offers as their retirement plans. Even PGA Tour professionals have accused the LIV defectors of being washed up after they made the transition. However, Koepka didn’t agree with these claims and decided to take a stand for all his fellow LIV golf stars.

“If I’m healthy, I know I can compete,” he said. “I don’t think any of the guys that played this event thought otherwise, either. When Phil plays good, we know he’s going to compete. P-Reed, the same thing.” According to the golfer, the media was responsible for creating a false image of the players’ capabilities on the field. “I think that’s just manufactured by the media that we can’t compete anymore; that we are washed up”.

Does Koepka believe that his performance made a difference in the PGA Tour vs LIV Golf controversy?

During his interview, they asked the golf star if his performance made an actual difference in the opinions of fans about LIV Golf players. And in his response, Koepka said, “I think everybody saw it this week…There’s no hard feelings pretty much. I think that’s the way everybody should see it.”
