Koepka: Majors are sometimes easiest to win


new2g0lf

Recommended Posts

I'm in the category that says BK doesn't get enough credit.... I think he's got a good chance this week and it would not surprise me to see him win double digit majors. He seems built for these types of tournaments.... He has proven he has the mental game and he seems to physically have all the tools as well... Grow the rough, he's one of the few guys that can muscle it out if need be and for this venue I think his strength will be a serious advantage in the longer wet stuff. He doesn't seem phased by much and can fight down the stretch even with Tiger coming at him. Some guys just talk some stupid s***... I just happen to believe Koepka is one of the few that can back it up.

I was just making a "blanket" statement.

Just hang around. If you hang around, good things are going to happen.”

Hogan said the U.S. Open was not hard to win if you were in or very close to the lead. Keep hitting fairways and greens and watch the field collapse.

Koepka, Woods and Molinari - Koepka will get a front row seat to see how some of his top competitors will react to the pressure of playing in the Major. Will be interesting to see how much of an advantage Koepka has off the tee in these wet conditions.

First tee - 175 mph ball speed for Koepka - middle of fairway, 160mph Molinari - way left - hit provisional and 169 mph for Tiger on right. Koepka only one in fairway.

I ain't got no ragrets neither.

Koepka is a bum, everybody knows it. Take his money, muscles, distance, ability to perform in majors, putting stroke, take all of that away and he's just an average Joe.

Don't forget about his short game touch, swagger, model girlfriend, and Crest Commercial smile as well. But other than those minor details, no different the the hacker in cargo shorts and a ball retriever at the local muni

I got all of those you mentioned. So, I'm covered.

> I initially scoffed at this statement by Koepka as an attempt to steal some headlines in his rebranding efforts but upon giving it more consideration it might not be as outrageous as it seemed. I'm not a huge Koepka fan but enjoy watching him play.

> His thought process was that he's overall better than at least half the field and that most of those left will shoot themselves out of it or crumble under the pressure of playing in a Major which leaves him a few guys to beat. He has the distance off the tee to put pressure on almost all except a few and seems to handle the pressure well. I'd like to see a final pairing with him and Tiger and see how each handles the pressure of playing against each other.

 

Yeah ... Late tee times on Sunday in a different world.

Most people make the mistake of buying the Callaway branded or the iGotcha retrievers. I "borrowed" a rake from a bunker awhile ago, good return on investment.
