PORTRUSH, United Kingdom: World number one Brooks Koepka said on Tuesday having Portrush local Ricky Elliott on the bag for this week's British Open gives him"more confidence", but Tiger Woods failed in a bid to join the pair for a practice round.

" definitely have a little bit more confidence having him on the bag this week, knowing this golf course so well. But I'm looking forward to it," said Koepka.Advertisement"So just let him figure it out. He knows his spots to miss it. The spots to come in from, with different hole locations and different winds."

Koepka's record in golf's big four tournaments is made even more remarkable by the fact he has won only two other regular PGA Tour events, the Phoenix Open in 2015 and the CJ Cup in South Korea last year."I just practise before the majors. Regular tournaments I don't practise," he said.
