When he decided to transition from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf, famous golfer Brooks Koepka created a stir in the sports world. This action, along with a rumored $130 million contract, sparked waves of criticism and heated debates across the sports world. The main contention is on an alleged tearful phone conversation between Koepka and his mother.

The debate started because of a passage in golf author Alan Shipnuck’s most recent book, “LIV and Lеt Diе”. In this section, Shipnuck described an incident in which Koepka allegedly criticized other golfers who had voiced their disdain for players leaving the PGA Tour, including Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas.

The book also quoted Koepka as saying, “Thе first pеrson I phonеd aftеr signing thе dеal was my mum. Wе sobbеd togеthеr“. However, Denise Jakows addressed these allegations on social media and clarified the situation.

She clarified on X that the only time she and her kid sobbed together was at the time of his birth. “Just to be clear, my kid (Brooks) and I only ever wept together when he was born,” she said in her own words. “I was relieved that the pregnancy experience was done as he was doing his first lung function test”.

One of the PGA players who fell prey to the temptation of the nine-figure guaranteed packages provided by LIV Golf was Brooks Koepka. The transition was also made by well-known athletes like Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia, and Bryson DeChambeau. Koepka was dealing with significant wrist and knee ailments when he made his choice.

Wider questions about the future of golf and players’ career choices have been spurred by this incident. It has also drawn attention to the conflicts that exist between more modern organizations like LIV Golf and established ones like the PGA Tour.

The supposed tearful phone chat between Brooks Koepka and his mother has therefore become a hot topic of discussion. Denise Jakows has rejected the allegations made in Shipnuck’s book, highlighting.

The fact that the only tears she and her son had experienced were at the time of their birth. This debate brings attention to the changing nature of professional golf as well as the difficulties that sportsmen confront in managing their careers.
