It’s crazy to think Brooks Koepka has more majors (2016, 2017 U.S. Open) than regular PGA Tour wins (2015 Phoenix Open).

That’s not going to diminish his chances at winning this week. He comes to the Canadian Open off of 19 made cuts in a row dating back to March 2017.

He was solo second at Colonial and fired a Sunday 63 at the PLAYERS in his second start post-injury.

Koepka’s played just twice since his U.S. Open win: a T19 at the Travelers and a T39 last week at the Open where he had two rounds under par at fearsome Carnoustie.

He showed well in his lone trip to Glen Abbey, registering a T18 in 2015. He was in contention to win until a Sunday 74 spoiled his chances.

Koepka’s sixth on Tour in birdie average, 30th in strokes gained off the tee and is quietly on pace for his fourth straight season inside the top 50 in SG putting.

If things shake out as I expect, he could end up doing battle with his gym buddy, Dustin Johnson, late on Sunday.
