@Nancy I thought it was a thoroughly enjoyable Thursday puzzle; challenging without feeling impossible, and with a clever, satisfying theme. You can't please everyone!

Loved the puzzle, it was a perfectly twisty Saturday with cool debuts and great fill. However, I'd like to reiterate a request that I'm sure has come up before: please do not pick header images for the Wordplay column that give hints for the puzzle! Not a very fun start to the puzzle to have an immediate gimme at 1A.

@Brian When solving in a web browser, the Wordplay headline and caption load directly below the puzzle.

@Paladin Respectfully, the clue did not refer to the Rules of Golf at all, but instead asked for a term that is synonymous with "golf hazard" in common usage. Hence, TRAP.

@Roy Does "informally" pass spell-check?

@SP The NYT web team really needs to find a way to hide the column on the solving page. Doesn't seem like it would be that difficult!
