THE US OPEN RECAP!

from Alternate Shot Hosted by BDAWG Media

Brooks Koepka is your US Open Champion! Matt's pick to win takes his second US Open victory in a row, besting Dustin Johnson, Tony Finau, and a red hot Sunday performance from FOTP Tommy Fleetwood. There was no shortage of controversy this week with how the USGA set up Shinnecock Hills (0:38)- taking an already brutal golf course to the extreme with unbelievably fast greens and some questionable pin placements. Phil Mickelson ignited a twitter firestorm on Saturday (21:01) hitting a wayward putt - while in motion - incurring a 2 shot penalty. There were hot takes flying from both sides - but ultimately the story was all about Koepka, who proved again why he is so tough to beat - firing a 68 on Sunday and winning his second Major (35:56). This week the tour heads to The Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands in Hartford, CT(1:08:52). A close proximity to the Open means a stronger than usual field this week. We have the full breakdown and more... Lot's to discuss this week, let's get into it!
