I don't think you understand how great these golfers are. To get scores that low under par is incredible. Koepka had an AMAZING weekend, a record breaking weekend actually. It's not like this is the norm though. The US Open is still one of the toughest and most competitive tournaments in golf.

This kind of falls into the original point. The top 10 US open from par scoring in history will be littered with 2017 Erin Hills scores.

Dumb Dumb Dumb

We can go through the years and courses where 3 to 4 under par would be the best Koepka could wish for and it's not like the USGA is all of a sudden presented with this new equipment advantage of modern players.

They should have a tournament where these "pros" go with 1940-1970 equipment so you bums can understand and appreciate the greats of the past. Go hit with a 3 inch 3 wood and see how far these pros today hit it. No it's not how "great" the players are vs the equipment.
