My Take
What fascinates me about Brooks Koepka is how selectively he applies his greatness. Plenty of golfers grind every week; Koepka seems to save an entirely different gear for the four weeks that matter most, and five major titles prove it is no illusion. I admire that almost ruthless economy of focus — he treats majors like heavyweight fights and everything else like sparring. His athletic, gym-built approach also helped redefine what a modern golfer looks like. He can come across as blunt or detached, but I read that as competitive clarity. When a Sunday leaderboard tightens, his is still the name I least want my favorites to see.
