Brooks Koepka secured his place in golfing history with a two-shot triumph at the US PGA Championship, where he went wire to wire to become the first male player to win his first four Major titles in less than two years.

“It's been so much fun these last two years, it's pretty close to two years. It's incredible. I don't think I even thought I was going to do it that fast. I don't think anybody did, and to be standing here today with four majors, it's mind-blowing."

On a brutally challenging day at the famously difficult Bethpage Black Course, the 29 year old was made to endure a nervy finish as the Long Island wind played havoc. Just as he looked to be cruising to a comfortable victory, Koepka bogeyed four holes in a row from the 11th and the seven-shot lead he began the day with was suddenly down to one.

“Today was definitely the most satisfying out of all of them for how stressful that round was; how stressful DJ made that. That was probably definitely - I know for a fact, that was the most excited I've ever been in my life ever there on 18."

But the pressure Dustin Johnson had been applying soon faded and back-to-back bogeys on the 16th and 17th meant he finished two shots back and relinquished his World Number One position to his friend Koepka, who signed for a final round 74 for an eight under winning total.

“I knew today, starting off, that it was going to play tough. The wind was up. It was the most wind we've had all week. I knew if I could get off to a good start, which I did, that I could maybe put a little bit of pressure on him and I did that too.

“Just the last three holes is what got me. Walking off the 15th green, well, standing on 16 th fairway, I'm at eight-under, and hit two really good shots there on 16, and I still don't know how my ball went over the green there."

Matt Wallace, meanwhile, secured his best finish at a Major Championship after battling to a final round 72 to finish in tied third alongside Jordan Spieth and Patrick Cantlay on two under. That moved the Englishman to second in the Race to Dubai Rankings presented by Rolex.

“That was crazy out there today, and there were so many cheers and roars going on that you kind of knew what was happening. D.J. is making a run at it.

“But for me to try and stay in my own competition and try and finish third - in the end I wanted second, but I would have taken third. I think we're looking at tied third at the moment. That's not a bad week for me.

“I looked in the mirror this morning for some reason and I saw yesterday's highlights, and I thought, I could see myself playing Ryder Cup here, and I want to be there now. I really do. And I feel like I can be there, whereas before maybe I didn't feel like I could, and now I really feel like I can.”

Two-time US PGA Champion Rory McIlroy signed for a one over par final round 71 to register his ninth top ten in his last nine starts, and he shared eighth place with Shane Lowry – who carded three sub-70 rounds at Bethpage – and South African Erik van Rooyen, among others.

“It's so tough out there," said McIlroy."I've moved up the leaderboard quite a lot, and my goal at the start of the day was to get into the top ten. I played well and good way to finish off the week.

“I stuck at it the whole way. It's a 72-hole golf tournament and you've got to try till the very end and I did that this week. It wasn't good enough to be up there in contention but I made improvements each and every day, which is a good thing."
