Koepka to all the fans after beating Tiger today

 

 

 

 

Shot of the day was Tiger's putt on #18? Really CBS?

[rangersgoalie]

Rickie waiting at the scorers tent to congratulate Brooks. Of course he was.

 

He’s there to teach Brooks how to be charismatic

 

 

Put on these neon clothes buddy

[BForrester]

Why do y’all care about tigers philandering and bad tipping habits? Do any of y’all know him? Or related to him?

 

I just don't root for jerks. Sorry if that bothers you. You do you, I'll do me.

 

And it is hard to root for posters who take every opportunity to complain... GL with you...

 

I'm not trying to win any fans. If those are the kinds of guys you root for, I don't want you rooting for me.

[Jasonic]

Can Adam Scott go away, this is worse that Spieth delay....

 

Dumbest post so far

Don't care!

Why do you care what golfer I like and don't like?

[bubbagump]

Koepka is freaking dreamy.

[Dave230]

Funny to think that this is only Tiger's 7th second place in a major, double it and add five to get to Nicklaus's total.

[gretch]

BK needs to take his girl for steak. Looking a little anorexic.

 

[Lancj1]

That was the best Major of the year, by far.

 

No Sunday better. Normal golf course, under par. Amazing entertainment.

 

Long live the PGA

So you won’t root for jerks, but will judge someone without ever meeting them? Fair enough

Talk about a high bar to cross.....

[jonn443]

64 with that many missed fairways is insane. His putting saved his Word not allowed but his irons and short game were on point.

 

With a little luck on 17 in his favor...5 feet left... Playing THREE.

[Lagavulin62]

How are we judging personality? He does not throw the F bomb around the young patrons so -1. Has not been accused of cheating on the course so -2. He has not had his mug shot posted on the net so -3. Yep, how could we enjoy or admire a guy like this?

 

He hasn't cheated on his wife with porn stars or Perkins waitresses, ...-1. He hasn't amassed hundreds of millions of dollars and still stiffs people on tips...you guessed it...another -1.

 

 

 

How is he stiffing people on tips? Giving 5%, not tipping at all? How do we know he’s not tipoing because it’s not permitted? I am asking because I really don’t know.

[PGArox]

Time for a few changes at CBS. Kostis can't count, McCord can't shutup, Verne doesn't know anyone's name, Nick thinks everything Tiger does is incredible.

Nantz is really holding together this boat crash.

 

Agree -- CBS coverage is stuck in 2001 and is ready for a refresh.

 

Big time. Golf is in the middle of a dynamic new generation of young stars. Time for the network golf coverage to do the same.

you need a starship to get over that line

[SwooshLT]

So now Koepka has the same Majors of JT, DJ, Reed and Fowler combined.

 

That's awesome......leave little rickie alone! Ha

You're right, I'm sure he had good reasons for doing those things.

[mgholda]

How does Levy get a pass for a DUI where he could have killed someone and Bishop get ousted for words? Words...

[b.helts]

Big Ben Kern with a sleeve on his left arm.

 

that’s awesome.

[Christen_The_Sloop]

That was one of the greatest days of golf followed by a crushing defeat

 

I feel like I've been sniffing coke all day and now I'm out

 

Dustin?

[dlygrisse]

BK just pressed the Wanamaker. Like a linebacker.

[redfirebird08]

2 majors in a year. Historical stuff from Brooks. Glad he is on the American side in the Ryder Cup!

Wow...you put it mildly. There’s a DEFCON 1 in there.

[SwooshLT]

Better interview than DJ.....sorry

[Darth Putter]

Tiger tosses a 64 at Brooks

 

Brooks response...

 

[BForrester]

BK just pressed the Wanamaker. Like a linebacker.

 

He's gonna go rep out some one-armed lateral raises with it after this interview.

I'm a big fan of Brooks Koepka. Really like how he goes about his business.

 

Reminds me of a quite, stocky third baseman in baseball. He's going up there to take his cuts....never gets cheated

 

He is tough as nails. Iceman

 

Mike Schmidt?

 

Yeah, forget the football jokes. An old school stocky slugger in baseball is a real comparison. Lets his game do the talking

I like watching Brooks Koepka play, it's a bit bomb-and-gauge but the power and athleticism in the swing is great to watch from driver to mid-irons. He's a pure striker of the ball. He's also unflappable under pressure, really flawless stuff in the last two majors.

 

Problem is that he isn't that easy to relate with, body-builder physique who barely shows any emotion on the course. Not exactly every-man John Daly. That's always going to be his problem in terms of marketing. Playing style, if Rickie Fowler played like that everybody would be raving about him.
