Brooks Koepka says he's 'awful the week after a major,' but that's not always the case

CROMWELL, Conn. – After Brooks Koepka finished the first round of the Travelers Championship, shooting 1-under 69, he lamented his post-major performance.

"Yeah, I'm awful the week after a major, especially U.S. Open, because it takes so much out of you," said Koepka, who tied for fourth at Torrey Pines. "But still should have played better. No excuse. I mean, I'm kind of tired. I am going to enjoy getting to bed tonight."

Yes, there have been times when Koepka has fallen flat the week after a major, but he has had some success, including a win.
