“I’ve been out here for, what, five years. Rory hasn’t won a major since I’ve been on the PGA Tour. So I just don’t view it as a rivalry,” Koepka told AFP ahead of his defence of the CJ Cup in Jeju, South Korea which begins on Thursday.
Koepka added: ‘I’m not looking at anybody behind me. I’m No 1 in the world. I’ve got open road in front of me I’m not looking in the rearview mirror, so I don’t see it as a rivalry.
‘You know if the fans do [call it a rivalry], then that’s on them and it could be fun.
‘Look I love Rory, he’s a great player and he’s fun to watch, but it’s just hard to believe there’s a rivalry in golf. I just don’t see it.’
If there wasn’t a rivalry before, this certainly helps.
Rivalries are great for sports, and Golf could certainly use a good one. . .
