Saying he only wins the majors is like saying Cris Carter only catches touchdowns to me.

Well, he's won more majors than standard PGA events, so it is actually true.

Well I will hope that he wins a few more John Deere Classics and Waste Management Opens so that all his cheap majors can be appreciated.

Shot 1: 331 yards (over corner) to right fairway
Shot 2: 57 yards to green. 3' 10" to hole
Shot 3: In hole

This is cheating.

Spieth fist pumping a top 5 where he trails by 7 is cringe-worthy.

Oof, bad lie on 18 for Brooks. Gonna have to work for this bogey

And CBS is mid-interview with DJ during that crucial shot

Koepka tried to hand the tournament to Dustin Johnson and Johnson immediately went into choke mode. Could have been a great finish.

Pretty soft stuff from DJ as usual. Shame the dude just doesn't have that fire that some guys have. He'd be one of the greatest if he did.

Really good to see Spieth have a strong showing at a course that does not fit his game at all.

Yeah i would enjoy seeing Spieth get back to his prior form, hopefully this bodes well for the future.

The only Tiger comparison i will accept is that this was the first tournament since Tiger where I thought 'Brooks is so obviously winning the tournament'. You can chalk a good bit up to course setup as the way they put some of these majors together, they just scream Brooks/DJ/Rory mold.

Well only Tiger, Koepka and Rory have ever had that big of a lead after 54 in a Major.
