One man has already won the US Open in three consecutive years. A step forward, Willie Anderson, of North Berwick, Scotland, emigrated to the United States as a teenager and winning the national championship four times, in 1901, 1903, 1904 and 1905. Before his first victory, at Myopia Hunt Mbadachusetts Club, all competitors were informed that they had to dine in the kitchen because the professionals were not allowed to visit the clubhouse because of their reputation as drinkers, nonsense, effing and wobbly. Anderson responded to this news by hacking huge divots while shouting "naw naw naw" incisively. Shortly after, petrified officials erected a tent in a hurry and the players were able to have their lunch comfortably.
The sensational Brooks Koepka could repeat Anderson's three rounds this week. The 2017 and 2018 champion is the hottest thing in golf right now. The world number one has recently decimated the peloton at the PGA, winning his fourth major title at his eight (!) Last attempts. Still tied for second place at this year's Masters, we are dealing with an unprecedented type of dominance since Tiger with great fanfare. And like Anderson before him, his performance is better when he is propelled by a little heat under the collar. His last PGA win was fueled by a perceived lack of respect on the part of the punditocracy; It is now raging because Fox Sports did not show it in one of their four US Open trailers. The fact that he is in the other three and that one of them concerns him alone is not the problem. Koepka has the funk. Everyone is paying attention!
Speaking of Tiger in all its splendor, the great man is back on the scene of his victory in 2000. He shot 65-69-71-67 – the normal 71 level was the best lap, made with the wind coming from Carmel Bay and spinning the rest of the field flat – and ending the week at -12, Miguel Angel second and Ernie Els, both in second place. Having finally won the major number 15 at Augusta in April, the tiger's tail is in place and he wants it. He is one of four favorites at low prices, with Koepka and former champions Dustin Johnson (second at Masters and PGA) and Rory McIlroy (winner last week in Canada after scoring 59).
Also a lot of fantasy this week: the informed Patrick Cantlay, Jordan Spieth, the 2013 winner, Justin Rose, the eternal bridesmaid Rickie Fowler, the braggart & # 39; Justin Thomas, the super coherent Xander Schauffele, Tommy Fleetwood , Jon Rahm, Adam Scott and Hideki Matsuyama. .. we could continue. Oh, and Phil Mickelson will make another attempt to claim the one who continues to escape and finish his career in style on his 49th birthday. The possibilities are limitless. Who will join Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Tom Kite, Tiger Woods and
Dustin Johnson
