Qué dice la gente

Las reacciones en X al anuncio de la donación de 5 millones de dólares de Brooks Koepka están polarizadas. Las respuestas positivas elogian las organizaciones benéficas, como Nicklaus Children’s Health Care y St. Jude, y aplauden a Koepka por devolver. Sin embargo, predominan opiniones escépticas y negativas, etiquetándolo como extorsión de la PGA Tour, chantaje o hipocresía dada la crítica pasada a los fondos de LIV como 'dinero ensangrentado'. Los usuarios cuestionan la publicidad, los beneficios fiscales y las asignaciones seleccionadas por miembros.

I would like to suggest @SCJGF as my charity of choice to receive some love from Koepka’s donation

Where Chamblee on this? It was always blood money...

However, now the PGA Tour will gladly take it and use it for their charities.

I guess the blood money title only applied when it didn't go directly into their pockets...now it's just good ole US dollars.

The hypocrisy of…
