you could expand his putting to all four days. I don't know how many missed birdie putts I saw him make. If you practiced his putting a little between majors he may have won them all this year. I felt the same way about the US open. Lots of burned edges on birdie putts.

indeed. he is arrogant. Doesn't mean i don't think he's a force of nature the past few years. Even Tiger at his height would not speak like Bruce does...even if he believed it and Bruce is no Tiger Woods.

The reason I love watching Brooks Koepka play golf isn't because I think he's a sweetheart of a guy.

> > > > I am honored to have frogmen whom are immediate family and frogmen who are friends. Koepka is insignificant. All he has done is isolate himself and put a target on his back and too much pressure on his game. This is a very important lesson in my opinion. You win as a quiet professional and let your game speak for itself.

You are correct, definitley true on Sunday as well . I can't tell you about Thursday or Friday. From what I saw, I don't think Golf Channel and NBC showed more than. 5 or 6 if his shots all round. ?

 

[bscinstnct]

Don’t say you hit it better than everyone

 

Then get killed

 

It’s like stuff Rory Sabatini or Woody Austin would say.

 

[mosesgolf]

BK you can't win em all and even with all those missed putts you weren't catching Shane Lowry no way no how.

[pgapromex]

Poor Brooks

#1 world ranking

#1 PGA money list

#1 FedEx

#1 Wyndam

If only he cared about wrxer whinging.

Looks like he is hitting the ball better than anyone. ?

[SCalGolfer]

Koepka beat everyone in majors by at least 22 shots. He has the right to talk.

 

Score to par at 2019 majors for those who made all four cuts.

 

Koepka: -36

Xander: -14

DJ: -14

Cantlay: -12

Webb: -9

Molinari: -9

Kuchar: -8

Fowler: -7

Fitzpatrick: -3

Spieth: -2

Oosty: -1

Stenson: E

Fleetwood: +3

Wise: +3

Hatton: +5

Cam Smith: +20

I have no idea if he is a nice guy or not, doesn't really matter. I respect him as a great player. In addition he appears classy in his actions to me.

IMO, he disrespects the professionals who built the legacy of these majors by being so arrogant and dismissing the field of professionals. Koepka is insignificant while life is just flicker. I hope he starts to win as a quiet professional and quit with the bull **** because at the end of the day he will get his teeth punched in.

Unless you go by Ricky Bobby standards.

[Hankshank]

Has he said more than that he thinks that during Portrush final day he hit it better than the others and was dissapointed because his putting let him down? That does not make him a Paddy Reed in my book. Not especially cocky at all. Though ”as good as anyone else” might have been an alternative, if you dont want to appear that.

[PZero]

He makes it really hard to want to like him. He has the personality of wall paper.

I remember the headlines when Dizzy got hot in the head with a line drive....

"Dean hit in head...x-rays show nothing".

I was surprised at how well he played. That was a classic letdown spot, after winning the PGA then fighting from behind all week but falling shy of a third straight US Open.

 

Normally that would equate to well beaten. Of course, in terms of strokes he was well beaten, but the concept of depth is so comical in majors that it equated to 4th anyway. So many of these guys go out of their way to non-factor in majors, apparently to avoid scrutiny of close but not quite.

 

I'm now 6-3 after being close to 6-4 most of my life. Koepka is a couple of inches shorter than myself, based on every time I've stood close to him while walking an event.

 

Rory at 5-8, or a bit taller, is about right.

 

Height is vital for LPGA, not PGA. The South Koreans leading the Evian this week are in the ideal 5-5 to 5-7 height range. However, Sung Hyun Park is listed on some sites at 5-8. She is not 5-8. I've checked this category for more than 20 years for betting purposes. Early listings had her at 5-6. My golf betting friend and I each watched her in person and came to the same conclusion...that she is 5-7. Now some of the metric listings have her at 170cm, which is logical because it equates to 5-7

[Shilgy]

Convenient to not believe the height of the world #1.

In the Rolex Rankings 5 players fit in your 5'5" to 5'7" metric and 5 do not.

 

How do you wager that over form or talent?

[KRAMER1997]

In 5 years Chase Koepka will have more majors than Bruce.
