The PGA Tour has had enough of fans adding fuel to the Bryson DeChambeau – Brooks Koepka rivalry.
This week, PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan announced that it will ban fans who scream “Brooksy” at DeChambeau because the taunt is “disrespectful” and there is no more place for it.
“The barometer that we are all using is the word ‘respect,'” Monahan told reporters, via TMZ Sports. “And to me, when you hear ‘Brooksy’ yelled or you hear any expression yelled, the question is, is that respectful or disrespectful?”
“It has been going on for an extended period of time, and to me, at this point, it’s disrespectful. And that’s the kind of behavior we’re not going to tolerate going forward.”
Just last week, DeChambeau snapped at a fan who taunted him with the “Brooksy” callout after missing a putt on the sixth-playoff hole that would have extended the BMW Championship. DeChambeau reportedly got in the fan’s face.
Moving forward, no more “Brooksy” will be allowed and the focus can go back to the game.
