Brooks Koepka has hilarious reason why relationship with caddie is so good
Brooks Koepka reveals why his relationship with caddie Ricky Elliott has proven such a success for over 10 years now.
Brooks Koepka has joked his relationship with Northern Irish caddie Ricky Elliott has proven such a success because he "does not understand him half the time".
Koepka, 33, has worked alongside the man from Portrush ever since the 2013 US PGA.
Elliott has therefore been on the bag of Koepka for all five of his major victories.
The LIV Golf star was pressed by the media ahead of this week's Ryder Cup in Rome as to why his relationship with Elliott has stood the test of time for over 10 years now.
Koepka and caddie Elliott have teamed up together to win nine tournaments on the PGA Tour, including two wins on the LIV Golf League.
The former World No.1 joined LIV Golf League in a huge money deal last season.
While the American was quick to joke about his looper's Northern Irish tones, he went on to explain how Elliott is one of his best friends.
