Rory McIlroy and/or Bubba Watson
Both should love links-style golf. Both should love the width and imagination rewarded at Chambers Bay. And if there was ever a U.S. Open course that seemed suited to their ability to overpower a course at the right times, this should be the one. But McIlroy and Watson have lingering emotional issues with exposed, windy and linksy conditions, McIlroy to much less of an extent after winning the 2014 Open Championship at an (albeit) softish Hoylake. Watson has yet to show he can embrace this kind of golf to the point of contending. But both are so gifted that they can't be ignored.
