Why don’t the pair get on?
The two Americans have been feuding now for more than three years, although it’s difficult to pinpoint when things first started.
Many point to an incident in January 2019 when Koepka criticised DeChambeau publical for the first time following the Dubai Desert Classic.
He accused his fellow countryman of slow play, which prompted Bryson to approach Koepka’s caddie later that year to say the four-time Major winner should say any barbs ‘to his face’.
Since then, their rivalry has played out in a very public way with the pair engaging in a number of spats both on and off the golf course.
And things came to a head in the 2021 PGA Championship, when an eye-roll from Koepka when DeChambeau walked behind him was broadcast around he world.
Koepka had been taking part in an interview when DeChambeau walked behind his foe and made a sarcastic comment about the 31-year-old, who rolled his eyes in response.
Koepka then said: “I’ve f*ing lost my train of thought hearing that bulls**t.”
