Brooks Koepka trolls Spanish rivals Jon Rahm and Sergio Garcia at LIV




Brooks Koepka nailed his Euro 2024 colors to the mask by turning up in an England shirt for his tee time with Spaniards Jon Rahm and Sergio Garcia on Sunday.

There was a very Spanish-heavy feel to the 1:05pm tee time LIV Golf Andalucia, with two Spanish players, and a very partisan crowd cheering them on just hours ahead of the national football team going head-to-head with England in Berlin.

Seemingly keen to rock the boat, Koepka hilariously arrived to the first hole in a retro England shirt, much to the surprise of both his rival golfers – and the entire crowd.

The American makes a beeline straight for Garcia, who himself is wearing a Spain football shirt, and the pair share a laugh before Rahm also gets involved.

In the background, the crowd can be heard loudly booing Koepka, before chanting ‘Viva Espana’ at him before he teed off.

Rahm and Garcia in particular will be keen to get their 18 holes out of the way quickly on Sunday, before they settle down to watch the big match, with England and Spain going head-to-head for the trophy in Berlin.

Spain have been the best team of the tournament so far, but Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions will be looking to end their drought and lift a first major trophy since 1966.

In the LIV Andalucia event, Garcia’s Firebolts went in second in the leaderboard, while Rahm’s Legion XIII were 10th and Koepka’s Smash GC back in 11th.
