‘I was 1 up going to 17 tee. We’d been jawing all day and we have like a 40-yard walk back to the 17th tee and he hasn’t said much the last couple of holes,’ he told ESPN.
‘I said something like, “I’ve got you right where I want you.”
‘He just tees the ball up, takes his practice swing and looks at me, “It’s the fourth quarter, baby, I don’t lose.”
Koepka revealed that Jordan came out on top on both the 17th and 18th holes to claim victory. He added: ‘It’s probably the last time I’ve smack talked him.
‘I have not played him since, but hopefully we’ll tee it up again soon.’
