Four months ago, we asked for your golf takes. You provided them, in droves. When we invited our audience to participate in a sweeping survey about all things golf — ranging from gear and game-improvement to the pro game and golf’s rules and customs — nearly 10,000 of you participated, spending, on average, 22 minutes on your responses, according to our survey platform.

For at least a month we’ve had Open Qualifying on the mind, thanks to the U.S. Open’s “Longest Day in Golf” punching tickets to Oakmont.

Pro golf is contested on grounds so large but is so often adjudicated on instances so small. Take, for example, the 6-foot, 8-inch putt Tommy Fleetwood missed and the 5-foot, 8-inch putt Keegan Bradley made. The former may have hit a ball mark. The latter certainly didn’t. The Travelers Championship seemed to boil down to that. That, and the penalty Russell Henley called on himself Friday afternoon, across the property, out of sight from cameras and playing partners.
