2018 U.S. Open

I wonder what it is about Koepka's skill set that makes him well suited for the U.S. Open?  I mean, aside from his two major wins, he's been just okay on the PGA tour.  But winning two U.S. Opens, there just aren't that many players in the history of golf who have achieved that.  

 
I think it is his confidence. He believes in his game and his game plan and is able to execute his shots well enough to stick to his plan. He wasn't ever really far off of the lead and never really got too sideways to have to start pin hunting. If he gets more than 1 stroke behind Tommy (the illegitimate son of the forgotten Beatle) Fleetwood, he might have started to press and that's when Three Jack jumps out of shadows and knifes you in the back.
