After a tense 2018 Ryder Cup in France, the two seemed to have reconciled during the 2021 Ryder Cup. After a hug widely resumed  and rebroadcast on social networks, a truce would have settled between the two players.

A twelve-hole match will therefore take place in Las Vegas between these two major winners, and for the enjoyment of viewers, the players in this match will be equipped with microphones. Four such matches have already taken place:

  • The best enemies Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson
  • Tigers Woods & Peyton vs Phil Mickelson & Tom Brady.
  • Phil Mickelson & Charles Barkley vs Peyton Manning & Stephen Curry
  • Bryson DeChambeau & Aaron Rodgers vs Phil Mickelson & Tom Brady.

Often handicapped in the last two years by his injuries, Brooks Koepka wants to regain his place as world number 1 as quickly as possible, as well as the leading roles in major. He still hopes to be able to surpass Tiger Woods' 15 majors mark: “I'm 31 years old. I still have 14 years left. If I win one a year I even have the Jack Nicklaus record ”.

After good results during his recovery including a victory in Phoenix and good places in the major, the golfer from West Palm Beach seems to be on the right track. He also made a lot of talk about him because of his differences with Bryson DeChambeau.

The Ryder Cup seems to have relaxed the atmosphere ahead of their meeting in Las Vegas: “I think we're excited”.

After a successful Ryder Cup for Bryson DeChambeau, the powerful American even tried out the Long Drive contests while waiting for the exhibition match against Koepka.

During the Long Drive World Championships, he even passed the group stages before being eliminated in the next round.

He recently admitted that he no longer had any differences with Koepka: "I have nothing against him", "there will always be a spirit of competition between us".

See you on November 26 in Las Vegas for The Match.
