Collin Morikawa is in no mood to back down after another feud between him and the media is making headlines. And if you ask him, why should he? After Adam Schupak shared the news about Morikawa’s latest caddie split, stating, “Morikawa, who is scheduled to compete this week at the Rocket Classic, confirmed to Golfweek that they had split before teeing off in Wednesday’s pro-am,” Morikawa felt that the report misrepresented him and painted him in a negative light. And if his recent comments following these interactions are any indication, he has not changed his stance.
Ahead of the opening round for the 2025 Rocket Classic, Morikawa put his foot down on the matter once again. Talking about his recent altercation with Schupak, the golfer said, “Well, because I think everyone should, and that’s a trait that you should learn how to do. At a point you can only follow so much and you have to stand up for yourself. Look, this has happened twice between the same — between me and Alan [sic.] It hasn’t happened between anyone else. A lot of other reporters, media, I respect everyone.”
But Collin Morikawa wasn’t done, and he added, “You know, I think for me to — I have to stand up for myself because I’m not going to let someone throw little jabs at me and just make me into someone I’m not because I know who I am and that’s all that matters. I know my people, my team, my family know who I am, but this whole perception out there right now is just, it’s a little ridiculous.”
