American golfer Brooks Koepka appears determined to keep his high-profile beef with fellow golfer Bryson DeChambeau alive and well.
Golf fans had to be removed from the Memorial Tournament on Friday for repeatedly heckling the reigning US Open champion Brooks DeChambeau.
To his clear frustrations, shouts of 'Brooksy' were directed at DeChambeau as he played.
"I don't care what they say," he stated afterwards. "Like if they say that, it's not a big deal to me, it's flattering.
"But I'll also say that if they say it during a back stroke that's different."
Although DeChambeau chose not to address claims made by The Athletic that he had asked for the fans to be removed from the course, Brooks Koepka has decided to weigh in himself.
