Hat-trick for Koepka What a few years the big-hitting American is having. Since making his debut in the 2016 Ryder Cup, where he won three out of a possible four points, Brooks has secured three Major championships, including back-to-back U.S. Opens and last week’s PGA Championship. Koepka took a two-shot lead into Sunday’s final round and couldn’t have dreamt for a better start; booming a 325-yard drive down the fairway before hitting his approach to six-foot for an opening birdie. A little wobble in the middle of his front nine was quickly addressed with birdies on seven, eight and nine, at which point a certain Tiger Woods was making a charge. But Koepka showed his quality by shooting a flawless two-under-par back nine, holding off challenges from Woods, Scott and Thomas to claim his third Major title in his last six Major starts. |
