DRIVING IN LONG ISLAND, N.Y.—We’re on our way to the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club from Montauk via some backroads that take us through Sag Harbor. “The Show Goes On” by Lupe Fiasco plays in the car. The first round of the tournament is less than 24 hours away. We just played golf. Vibes are high.
We arrive at a stop sign in Sag Harbor with the bay on our right. There's a few cars in front of us so we sneak a peek at the water.
