Koepka's Masters Run Marred by Caddie Controversy and Rules Questions
Former Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley has criticized Brooks Koepka for denying his caddie gave advice to his playing partner, Gary Woodland, during the Masters. TV footage appeared to show Koepka's caddie, Ricky Elliott, saying "Five" to Woodland's caddie after the former world No. 1 hit a 5-iron onto the 15th green. Rule 10-2a forbids any player giving or asking for advice from anyone but his own caddie. The Masters cleared Koepka and Elliott of any wrongdoing, but McGinley said the evidence was "overwhelming."
