The four-time LIV Champion had something up his sleeve after he was paired with Rahm and Garcia for the final round of the tournament in Andalucia.

As he made his way out onto the tee, fans shouted “Vamos!” in response to Koepka proudly wearing his England shirt.

Koepka’s daring outfit comes just hours before England faces Spain in the Euro 2024 final in Berlin.

And fans have called the American stunt “elite”.

One said: “Brooks is a funny guy. That’s truly trolling at an elite level.”

Another added: “Brilliant Brooks wind them up for later..”

While Garcia laughed it off Rahm on the other hand looked less impressed.

An eagle-eyed fan sarcastically put: “John Rahm having a great time😂😂😂😂.”

A second then said: “Jon looks like he’s having so much fun!”

In another video clip, Koepka faces the camera and quips: “England jersey, playing with two Spaniards, full crowd are Spanish so it should be fun.”

He then patted the Three Lions crest and winked to the camera before he removed the shirt on the tee.

As the final day approaches, Brooks currently holds the 15th position on the leaderboard one stroke over par while Rahm and Garcia are even par in joint 11th.

Despite Koepka winning the most LIV tournaments it’s India star Anirban Lahiri currently leading the way seven under par.

And the Saudi-backed event is offering its usual jaw-dropping purse of £19m with £2m handed to the competition winner.
