Brooks Koepka shot 2-under 68 in the final round at Shinnecock Hills to become the first player in nearly three decades to successfully defend his title at the U.S. Open.
Koepka is now the seventh player in U.S. Open history to win in back-to-back years, with an eye on a third straight in 2019 at Pebble Beach. Here’s a look at the list of players to accomplish repeat wins, including Willie Anderson, the only man to ever win three in a row:
2017-18: Brooks Koepka
1988-89: Curtis Strange
1950-51: Ben Hogan
1937-38: Ralph Guldahl
1929-30: Bobby Jones (a)
1911-12: John McDermott
1903-05: Willie Anderson
