Fans dig up Brooks Koepka's old LeBron-bashing tweets
Brooks Koepka had some strong feelings about LeBron James back in 2011.
As Koepka was closing in on his first major win at the U.S. Open on Sunday, a couple of his old tweets resurfaced in which he made some very wrong predictions about James.

James, of course, went on to win two consecutive titles with the Miami Heat after losing to Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks in the 2011 NBA Finals.
To his credit, Koepka did pay his respects to James the following season:
Lebron played one of the best games I've ever seen!!
