Beautiful Brooks Koepka ends the drought to set up second-half surge

If I owned a pair of blue suede shoes, I would have slipped into them last Sunday night and spent 24 hours dancing in the style of a fully charged Elvis Presley, such was my elation at events in his home city of Memphis, Tennessee.

Well, it's one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, now go, Brooks, go. Brooks Koepka has taken over as The King. Arise King Koepka – who has biceps like King Kong – the new ruler of Memphis after his three-shot WGC-FedEx St Jude Invitational triumph.

After spending all year living in Heartbreak Hotel, with selections regularly finishing second, third, fourth, etc, but never managing to bring home the amount of bacon to which my fat, greedy gut had become accustomed, I could finally check out of those loathsome lodgings and skip merrily away from the reception desk.
