U.S. Open champ Brooks Koepka happy to be back on course at Travelers

CROMWELL – There hasn’t been much time to rest in the three days since Brooks Koepka won a second successive U.S. Open on Sunday.

Heavy media obligations, and a little post-championship celebrating in the Hamptons, sapped much of his energy in the prelude to this week’s Travelers Championship – a commitment he kept despite an historic achievement not seen in a generation.

So it wasn’t surprising that in the moments after shooting a 68 in the opening round on Thursday at the TPC River Highlands, Koepka said he was looking forward to a nap.

Of course Koepka, whose chiseled physique more closely resembles a pro football player, said the nap was necessary only to rest up before a trip to the gym later that afternoon.
