156 golfers will tee it up at the 2018 U.S. Open. But getting to the Southampton property is a competition in itself.

It wasn't quite as badass as Michael Jordan's shrug or even Desmond Howard's Heisman pose, but Jordan Spieth's “Go get that!” shout after dropping an eagle during last year's Open Championship run became an iconic moment the instant those words left the Texan's lips.
