WASHINGTON (AFP) - Brooks Koepka opted to take no chances with the Ryder Cup coming up, pulling out of the US PGA Tour Championship on Saturday (Sept 4) after hurting his left wrist hitting out of the rough.

"Same wrist I had issues with back in '17, '18, so just making sure it's all good," said Koepka, who injured his left wrist when his club struck a tree root as he hit out of the rough on the way to a bogey at the 10th hole at East Lake in Atlanta.
