SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. In the 117 U.S. Opens that have been played before this week, this is new.Although theres no way to know for sure, Garrett Rank, an NHL referee who qualified for this weeks championship, recently had what has to be an unprecedented conversation.I got a question the other day about whether I would want to finish in the top 10 in the U.S. Open or work Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals, Rank said on Monday at Shinnecock Hills. I answered the top 10 at the U.S. Open. And I said I'd save the Stanley Cup finals for 15 years down the road when my golf game wasn't as strong.Rank, 30, carded rounds of 71-71 at the Georgia sectional qualifier to earn his spot in the U.S. Open. Not bad for a guy whose day job included 73 regular-season NHL games and three playoff games this season. In fact, during the 2017-18 season, Rank said he played just three rounds of golf while he was on the road.

Although he grew up playing hockey, he said he was always drawn to golf.Growing up in Canada, you're kind of born with a pair of skates on your feet so hockey is probably our No. 1 sport. But golf is getting there, he said.Rank will be paired with fellow Canadian Mackenzie Hughes and Australias Aaron Baddeley for Rounds 1 and 2 at Shinnecock Hills.
