There was a bit more to the interview than this. He was asked what his chances were and he talked about how he had been in this position several times before. He stated that he had won four majors and the most anyone else in contention had won was one.

He simply spoke the truth. As far as DJ is concerned, he was right. DJ didn't win.

In order to perform at the highest level and win big events, athletes have to be extremely confident in themselves. Koepka statement was simply a result of that confidence. I'd bet if you asked DJ about it, he wasn't offended.

Congratulations to Collin Morikawa. He has had a big four weeks. Hope is continues for him.
