Paul Azinger calls out Brooks Koepka over his Ryder Cup comments

As far as Paul Azinger is concerned, Brooks Koepka doesn’t need to be at Whistling Straits next week with the U.S. Ryder Cup team.

If he doesn't like the event, the former team captain and current Golf Channel analyst said Wednesday, Koepka should give up his spot.

"I'm not sure he loves the Ryder Cup that much, if he doesn't love it he should relinquish his spot and get people there who do love it," Azinger said Wednesday, via ESPN’s Bob Harig. "Not everybody embraces it. But if you don't love it, and you're not sold out, then I think Brooks — especially being hurt — should consider whether or not he really wants to be there.
