The U.S. Open typically takes place on Father's Day Weekend, but that is no coincidence.
For many sons, for many years, a love for sports has been passed down by their dad -- inherently bringing a sentimental element to the tournament that makes it stand out among majors. The same could be said for football.
So with the 122nd U.S. Open being played locally at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass., a few Patriots players took the opportunity to celebrate accordingly: by attending with their father or son.
"I can remember growing up and my dad always just wanting to watch the US Open on Sunday," Patriots center David Andrews said on Saturday.
