SHINNECOCK HILLS, NY — Brooks Koepka became the first man to win back-to-back US Open titles for 29 years after overcoming a testing and controversial week at Shinnecock Hills.
The 28-year-old Floridian triumphed by one shot on an absorbing afternoon to back up his breakthrough major victory at Erin Hills 12 months ago.
He began the day in a four-way tie for the lead and carded a two-under 68 for one over to edge England’s Tommy Fleetwood, who fired only the sixth round of 63 in US Open histor
