\n FORT WORTH, Texas \u2014 Brooks Koepka, the No. 2 ranked player in the world, revealed that he\u2019d consider sitting out the Ryder Cup if it\u2019s played without spectators.<\/p>\n

Koepka, who leads the Ryder Cup points list and is a lock to be a part of the team, was asked on Wednesday if he can see any scenario where if the PGA of America opted to proceed with the Ryder Cup without fans that any players might boycott the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah\u2019\u2019 he said on the eve of this week\u2019s Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club.<\/p>\n

Asked if he might take a pass, Koepka said, \u201cPossibly. I think there\u2019s a lot more that goes into that \u2014 why they would be playing, personally. As players, I think we all know why they\u2019re playing or why we would play.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Asked if that reason is money, he responded while rubbing his fingers together, \u201cThat\u2019s the only reason. Give it to Johnny Football,\u2019\u2019 an ode to Johnny Manziel.<\/p>\n

Koepka said he hasn\u2019t spoken to anyone from the PGA of America about the topic, nor has he been asked his opinion. A number of the top players in the world have been vocal about the fact that they don\u2019t believe the Ryder Cup should be staged without fans.<\/p>\n

The Colonial this week is the first of four PGA Tour events that are being played without spectators as sports slowly resurfaces in the coronavirus age. The Memorial, to be played in July, is the first event that is expected to allow fans, though a much fewer number than usual.<\/p>\n

The Ryder Cup is scheduled to be played at Wisconsin\u2019s Whistling Straits on Sept. 25-27.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to play if there\u2019s no fans.,\u2019\u2019 Koepka said, \u201cThe fans make that event. The fans make that special. If we\u2019re not playing in front of fans, it\u2019s just like us playing a game<\/a> in Florida. You\u2019ve got myself, Rory [McIlroy], DJ (Dustin Johnson), you\u2019ve got all these guys that are living in Jupiter. It would be just like a normal game that goes on in Jupiter. And there\u2019s no fist pumping there, there\u2019s no excitement. The fans create the excitement for the Ryder Cup.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, we\u2019re excited to play, but you see the emotion. If there\u2019s no fans out there you\u2019re not going to see guys fist pumping and that passion behind it. Yes, I love to play for my country, I love to do all these things, but it\u2019s important to have the fans there. We feed off it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fans get louder or they\u2019ll boo you depending on what you\u2019re doing, but that\u2019s the beauty of it. It makes the Ryder Cup is a true sporting event. It\u2019s different than any other golf tournament we play. It\u2019s a true sporting event, and I think if we can have fans, that\u2019s perfect, and if we can\u2019t, it just seems kind of like an exhibition. I just don\u2019t want to play it without fans.\u2019\u2019\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
