Brooks Koepka made a final day push at the U.S. Open but faltered late in his bid to win a third title.
A bad shot and an even worse break derailed Rory McIlroy's hopes at the U.S. Open on Sunday but while the Northern Irishman's major victory drought now stands at 25 championships he said his performance at Torrey Pines was a step in the right direction. Two shots from the lead, McIlroy frittered away a stroke with a three-putt bogey at the 11th, before pushing his approach from a fairway bunker at the par-four 12th into a greenside bunker, the four-time major winner's ball plugging in the back of the sand, under a lip.
"It's frustrating in the moment when it's happening, but afterwards for me now, I don't really care as much. I've already won it."
As the pressure mounted in the final round of the U.S. Open, nobody could do anything from 10 to the house. Then along came Jon Rahm. The post Jon Rahm seized the moment at the 121st U.S. Open as his competitors succumbed to it appeared first on Golf.
Jon Rahm wins the U.S. Open on the PGA Tour, beating out Louis Oosthuizen in second position. Jon Rahm has taken home the title at the PGA Tour´s U.S. Open. The Spaniard scored a final round of 67 at Torrey Pines (South). He finishes in front of Louis Oosthuizen in second place and Harris English coming in third. Rahm finished the U.S. Open with a total score of 6 under par. "This is the power of positive thinking", Rahm explained. "I was never resentful for one second for what happened. And I don't blame anybody. It's been a difficult year, and unfortunately COVID is a reality in this world, and it's affected a lot of people. I got out of what happened the best possible hand because nobody in my family got sick. I barely got any symptoms.""I have to mention, we have lost a lot of people back home. We have lost some friends. This one is to a friend of mine who was a journalist who had just started getting into golf and he was basically following me around the world of golf, and when he started he had no idea what golf was, and he passed away a few months ago from COVID. It was very quick; from the time he got it, he went to the ICU and passed away. Like him, there's many people in this world.I know what happened a couple of weeks ago. Some people might say it wasn't fair, but it was what had to be done. We still have to be aware of what's going on in this world. Take care of yourself and everybody around you so we can get over this as quick as possible."Paul Casey, 19th in the official world golf ranking, finishes the tournament in T7th place.

There is no subtelty to Bryson DeChambeau's game plan as he seeks to defend his U.S. Open crown. With rare exceptions, the ferocious-swinging DeChambeau bashes his drives as far as he possibly can, knowing that as long as he stays in-bounds he should be okay. "When I miss it, because I hit it pretty far, I'm going to miss it off line quite a bit," DeChambeau said after shooting a bogey-free three-under-par 68 to move within two shots of leaders Louis Oosthuizen, Russell Henley and Mackenzie Hughes.

World number three Jon Rahm stayed in the frame for his first-major title on Friday as he headed into the U.S. Open weekend at three-under par and two strokes behind the clubhouse lead at Torrey Pines. The 26-year-old Spaniard struggled to hit the fairway early on in the round, but found his footing on the back half of the course, carding a respectable one-under par 70, with a pair of birdies on the final five holes in San Diego. The solid performance comes after Rahm was forced to abandon a six-shot lead having completed 54 holes at the Memorial tournament in Ohio earlier this month after returning a positive coronvirus test.
