PGA Tour loyalist Rory McIlroy and LIV Golf poster boy Brooks Koepka are set for an awkward reunion this week, after being paired alongside each other at the US Open.
After a monumental week following the announcement that the PGA Tour and LIV Golf were putting their differences aside to sign a merger, attention now turns to the action on the course for the second major championship of the year at Los Angeles Country Club. All eyes were on Monday's tee time announcement, amid the ongoing off-course drama.
And the one group that caught the eye was that of McIlroy and Koepka, who will also be joined by 2021 Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama across round one and two on Thursday and Friday.
