US Open champion Matthew Fitzpatrick has defended Brooks Koepka’s decision to join the controversial LIV Golf Invitational Series - but he re-iterated his position to remain playing on the PGA Tour.
Four-time Major winner Koepka is set to become the latest star to join the lucrative LIV Golf Invitational Series . The 32-year-old is expected to play in the second 54-hole 48-man tournament in Portland next week, which has a prize fund of £20 million.
On Sunday, Fitzpatrick won his maiden major title as he outclassed American duo Scottie Scheffler and Will Zalatoris. The Englishman won the 122nd US Open with a score of six-under to become just the fourth English player in history to win the illustrious tournament.
