Through the social media platform, Paige Spiranac shared insight on the favorites for the 2023 US Open. She named a few golfers who might deliver well on the LACC golf course. Among the likes of Jon Rahm, and Scottie Scheffler was the PGA Champion Brooks Koepka.

The Instagram icon in her story said, “Brooks Koepka seems very confident and a ‘cocky’ Brooks is a very ‘dangerous’ Brooks.” She strongly mentioned how exceptionally the golfer plays when it comes to major tournaments. The entire world witnessed the example of the same during this year.

In the two majors so far, Koepka has impressed almost everyone with his skills. First, it was the Augusta Masters that saw him finishing at T2 with Phil Mickelson. Second, his fifth major victory in Rochester displayed how brilliant of a golfer the 33-year-old is. Hence, it seems justified for Spiranac to believe the same before the third major championship.

In addition to this, she expressed her liking for Rory McIlroy‘s decision to cancel the pre-tournament press conference. The social media icon believed it was smart, especially with everything that has been happening around the game. However, Brooks Koepka does not appear much bothered by all the uncertainty that has evolved.

If Koepka manages to inscribe his name on the 2023 US Open trophy, he will hold the same record as Mickelson, who currently has six major wins to boast about. Well! Paige Spiranac believes that Koepka is oozing confidence before the mega event. All we can do is wait to see how Thursday through Sunday paves the way for the star.

Interestingly, Brooks Koepka isn’t the only one who received appreciation from the Instagram golf star. Spiranac has recently complimented his wife Jena Sims in one of her podcast episodes.
