SAN FRANCISCO: A confident Brooks Koepka said on Tuesday he had ironed out the kinks that hindered his game earlier this year and added that he will claim a third consecutive PGA Championship this week if he plays at the level he is capable of.

In the weeks leading up to the tournament few gave the 30-year-old much of a chance as he struggled with left knee soreness after the PGA Tour resumed in mid-June but the American came alive in Memphis last week to finish tied for second place.The four-time major winner and former world number one said he was more comfortable playing on the sport's biggest stages because he thrives under pressure.

"Then from there I feel like mentally I can beat them, the other half, so you've probably got ten guys. That's the way I see it."
