This weekend we had a great and surprising competition at the Pebble Beach Golf Links Course for the 119th US Open.
American Gary Woodland stunned everyone, managing to win the competition with his biggest victory at the US Open to date. Woodland won the hearts of the audience showing great calmness under the intense pressure of the game, but the biggest news of the competition was not his incredible victory.
Instead, it was what he stopped from happening. With his victory, Woodland held off the reigning champion Brooks Koepka who was on his way to become the second man who would have won three US Opens in a row which is a record lasting 115 years since Scot Anderson won three consecutive US Opens.
The 35-year-old Woodland managed to post a 69 for a 13 under total. The now champion was training with the famous Yorkshireman Pete Cowen who also worked with Koepka. The work of the Cowen showed with the stunning result Woodland managed to pull off this weekend at Pebble Beach.
