Fred Couples immediately text Brooks Koepka after PGA Tour return claim was made public
Brooks Koepka has now had his say on his future after fellow major champion Fred Couples claimed that the LIV Golf star was keen to make a comeback to the PGA Tour
Fred Couples quickly reached out to Brooks Koepka after he discussed the future of the LIV Golf star in a radio interview last week. Couples raised eyebrows when revealing that he had spoken with Koepka, who had told him he was hoping to make a comeback to the PGA Tour. The veteran told KJR 93.3 FM: “I talked to Brooks Koepka all the time.
“I love Brooks Koepka, and I’m not going to say anything extra except I talked to him all the time. He wants to come back. I will say that I believe he really wants to come back and play the Tour.”
Couples quotes were put to Koepka on Wednesday ahead of LIV Singapore at Sentosa Golf Club. Interestingly, the five-time major champion failed to commit his long-term future to the LIV setup. It comes after he recently gave an honest assessment of the growth of LIV since joining the breakaway league.
He told reporters: “Yeah, Fred texted me after, I guess, the comments came out. I don’t know when it was. Sometime last week. Yeah, everybody seems to have their own opinion and no one asks me.
“I talked to Fred quite a bit, but we don’t go too much into detail about what’s going on. Like I’ve said before, I’m not in those rooms.
“I’ve got a contract obligation out here to fulfill, and then we’ll see what happens. I don’t know where I’m going. So I don’t know how everybody else does. Right now I’m just focused on how do I play better, how do I play better in the majors, how does this team win.
