PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland – Brooks Koepka didn’t sound like a man who was seven strokes off the pace through three rounds of The Open.

“Nobody has hit it better than me this week. I've hit it as good as I could possibly imagine,” he said Saturday following a third-round 67 at Royal Portrush.

This was not idle boasting from the four-time major champion. He ranks 22nd in the field in greens in regulation, hitting 14 of 18 on Saturday, and 14th in fairways hit.
