Feisty LIV star Brooks Koepka confronts heckling fan at the PGA after being trolled over transfer
Former World No.1 gives sparky response to mouthy individual in crowd
Feisty Brooks Koepka has been involved in a spat with a mouthy fan who had a pop at him over his LIV move.
The American star, a three-times winner of the PGA Championship, was the victim of some heckling on his way to missing the cut at Quail Hollow. Kopeka was walking off a tee with his playing partners during Friday's second round when an individual from a nearby spectator vantage spot chirped the barbs over the fence with a comment of 'that's what guaranteed money does' to the disappointed player, a pointed reference to the sums on offer on the Saudi-backed Tour.
The no-nonsense was in no mood for just letting it wash off him and turned to face the gobby culprit before responding: 'You want to come down here and say it?'
Koepka's offer was, understandably, not accepted by the individual in question and the five-times Major winner subsequently continued his walk up the fairway.
Despite showing his battling qualities without a club in his hand, the former World No.1 was not able to display the right traits with his sticks as he missed the cut by a whopping eight shots and out of the tournament by the halfway stage.
