Brooks Koepka will be among the favourites to win the 2022
US Open having won the tournament twice in the past.
The American star has won four major tournaments namely US Open (twice) and PGA Championship (twice) since he turned professional.
Koepka is the only golfer who has won the US Open more than once among the 156 players who will compete in this year's tournament.

The 2019 PGA Tour leading money winner, who tends to bring his A-game to majors, won the US Open in 2017 and 2018, before clinching the PGA Championship in 2018 and 2019.
Therefore, Koepka became the first golfer in history to hold back-to-back titles in two majors simultaneously as he played some of his best golf at the time.
The last time the 32-year-old tasted success on the PGA Tour was in February last year as he clinched the Waste Management Phoenix Open for the second time in his career.
Koepka will be looking to register his maiden win in the 2021-22 PGA Tour season by winning the US Open and emulate the great Tiger Woods who has also won the major three times.

“Feel like I've proven myself,” Koepka said when asked about his achievement in major tournaments.
“I think if I was one of those guys and I saw my name on the leaderboard in a major championship, I'd think, 'Really? Not again,' maybe.
"But you'd have to ask those guys, I don't know. I don't feel like I'm intimidating. I feel like I'm a nice guy and will talk to just about anybody on the range or when we're playing," he added.
"You've got to ask them."
Willie Anderson, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan and Jack Nicklaus hold the record for most US Open victories, each winning four.
