‘Doesn’t Matter to Me’: PGA Tour Veteran Makes An Astonishing Brooks Koepka Confession as the Patriotic Showdown Inches Closer
LIV Golf, the all-time controversial golf event, is just about to kick off. With constant rule amendments and the bringing in of players from the PGA Tour, the event has been in the limelight for a while. With a successful 2022 closing, there are hopes for 2023 to be in their favor as well.
This year, Ryder Cup player Brooks Koepka is going to be a part of the LIV Golf League again. Fred Couples, the Ryder Cup assistant captain, has shared his thoughts on Koepka being a part of the LIV Golf League and has expressed uncertainty about the future of pro golf in light of ongoing developments, claiming “it doesn’t matter” anymore!
Couples, a critic of the LIV Golf League, discussed his reasons for being in opposition to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour in an interview on CNBC’s Closing Bell. In the exchange with the host, Scott Wapner, he expressed his thoughts about the fate of LIV Golf following a proposed partnership between its backers, the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund, and the PGA Tour.
When asked if he hoped this partnership between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour wouldn’t materialize, Couples admitted that he never thought LIV Golf would get off the ground initially. He suspected that immense financial backing was the driving force behind its existence.
