If you're playing golf on the Fourth of July, here's one rule you need to remember

This is one of the great gestures golf courses can do as we celebrate our independence.
A tournament official holds a flag stick with the American flag on it on the ninth green during the 2021 NCAA Men's Golf Championship at Grayhawk Golf Club.
