Finau and Berger with darts on 11, I guess it isn't that hard afterall. Koepka stariing at another bogey potential on 12

Koepka with big saves on the last 2, kind of a miracle toonly go +1 on the last 2 with as miserable tee shots as he hit on both

Flip side of those great saves was that he put himself in position where he needed to make them. If he keeps doing that, he'll get bit in the ass.

And Koepka finds the nasty shit again off the tee. Fucking Fleetwood is going to win this. I'm just hoping we can somehow get a playoff out of it.

DJ could actually equal his 38 putts from yesterday. That's the most he's had in a round in his career, and he could do it two days in a row. How many 3 putts does he have? He's only got one one putt, I believe.

Definitely not as exciting a Sunday as I had hoped for, but it sure beat last year's. British at Carnoustie should be fun.
It was pretty exciting from the moment Fleetwood went on the run. And then Brooks hit every single putt every struck in the history of golf and the drama died, hard. But until he nailed that last birdie, it was pretty compelling.

But we had a chance at a 5 man playoffs and it wasn't an outlandish possibility. So to see him win by 2 or 3 sucks.

Someone shooting a +1 on the back nine to win the US Open seems like it would be extremely appropriate. It’s the US Open it’s supposed to be hard.

I think you need to qualify that statement with something like....
“the guy who shoots a +1 from there because his good shots don’t randomly incur as much bad luck as everyone else’s good shots probably wins. Not exactly what you want to see.”

Random luck is bad. A hard, but fair US open course is awesome
I meant exactly what I said. You should speak for yourself.
