The course at Erin Hills was long with wide fairways with no tree hazards, so the scores were much better than you would expect for a U.S. Open. The course was perfect for Brooks Koepka who brought home the trophy.

Jordan Spieth had a great weekend, winning at Pebble Beach. As noted below he becomes the second youngest player since WWII to win nine times on the PGA Tour after Tiger Woods. He’s a great player and has a long career ahead of him if he stays healthy . . . and out of trouble lol.
It’s been a long eight years, but we’ve finally won back the Ryder Cup. This US team was loaded with young guns and withstood some amazing golf from Rory McIlory for a huge win.
Score is FINAL. U.S. wins 2016 #RyderCup, 17-11.
What a special win. First one since 2008. https://t.co/l6Fw0f4hFO pic.twitter.com/Xzs2hVInZp

Jordan Spieth has lived a charmed life on the PGA tour, but everything changed earlier this year when he suffered an epic meltdown at The Masters giving up a large lead on Sunday to blow the tournament.
With the US Open underway today, we’ll see if Spieth has been able to shake off that miserable experience and snag another major.
The PGA Tour is turning over a new leaf after the 2015 schedule. Former tour headliner Tiger Woods is a shell of his former self and may never play another PGA event in his life, due to mounting injuries. And his decline, as well as some of golf’s other gatekeepers stepping back, has opened the door for the younger – and more promising – players on tour.
