Collin Morikawa is not holding back! The two-time major champion confronted Golfweek's Adam Schupak during a press conference, expressing his frustration over a quote in an article about his recent caddie switch.

The Shift in Caddies: What Happened?

Morikawa confirmed that he is parting ways with caddie Joe Greiner after just five tournaments. Stepping in is KK Limbhasut, a former teammate from California, as he prepares for this week's Rocket Classic at the Detroit Golf Club.

Tension Brews During the Press Conference

During the press conference, Morikawa didn't mince words when addressing Schupak’s article, which mentioned that he was preoccupied with his pro-am partners. "Look, I'm not here to tell people how to do their jobs," Morikawa stated, clearly irritated. "But why would you try to make me sound bad by highlighting that I was busy with my pro-am partners? They’re paying a lot for this opportunity and are an important part of the community.”

A Heated Exchange Between Morikawa and Schupak

When Schupak defended his reporting by saying he meant it as a compliment, Morikawa shot back, "That's not how I read it. There are various perspectives, and you have to acknowledge that people can interpret it differently!" His frustration underscores not just the pressure of the sport but the high expectations he holds for himself amidst a challenging period.

Struggles on the Course and Future Aspirations

This media spat isn't just about a controversial article; it's occurring during a tough stretch for Morikawa on the greens. In his five tournaments with Greiner, he failed to place higher than T-17, and hasn't secured a win since the Zozo Championship in October 2023. With Limbhasut stepping in, fans are eager to see if this change will revitalize his game.

As Morikawa prepares for the Rocket Classic, all eyes will be on him not just to see if he can turn his season around, but also how he handles the scrutiny from both media and fans alike.
