The age of finess golf in the US Open is dead. Unless you can carry the ball 300+ it is nearly impossible to win a US Open. Koepke won his third PGA Tour event and his second Open, back to back. I’m not sure what the USGA is trying to accomplish but the course set up the last three years favors long hitters so much it limits the number or players who have a chance. Still a great event but we may have seen the last of players like Corey Pavin, Zach Johnson and others have a chance to win this event.
