“Love to see it” – Fans react to rumors claiming Brooks Koepka intentionally checked in 69th at The Masters for his caddie to wear 69
Brooks Koepka's caddie Ricky Elliott was seen wearing number 69 this week at the 2023 Masters. However, the rumor has it that Koepka deliberately checked in at 69th so that his caddie could wear the number over the four days at the Augusta National.
A Twitter user named Colin Landforce tweeted:
"Why is no one talking about Brooks Koepka intentionally checking in 69th at The Masters so his caddie is wearing 69 all week at the most prestigious event in golf lmao"
