From The Tee

From The Fairway Recalling his Scottish heritage, Ross made liberal use of bunkers, both across the fairway and around the green. No. 1 was a great start for Pinehurst, and it’s a great start for your visit.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee It has served as the site of more single golf championships than any course in America and hosted back-to-back U.S. Open and U.S. Women’s Open Championships for the first time in 2014.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee Tiny elevated greens – averaging just 4,500 square feet each – demand precision, the kind of delicate approaches that will surely come in handy as you gear up for No. 2.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee Like Ross, Maples believed that it was the designer’s jO-B to find the golf course that resided in the land’s structure, and his fealty to the land is evident in No. 5’s variety.

From The Fairway No. 5 was designed in 1961 by Ellis Maples, a protégé of Donald Ross, and part of North Carolina’s first family of golf course design and construction.

On The Green One of Pinehurst’s most picturesque holes, the par-3 14th, is here. Known as the Cathedral Hole, it’s fronted by a pond and encircled by a stand of ancient pines, the tops of which resemble the pipes of an organ.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee Tom and his uncle George, a famed designer in his own right, began work on No. 6 in 1975. The result was a more rugged, undulating track that demands bigger drives and more aggressive approaches. Tom returned in 2005 to carve new bunkers, soften angles and seed faster greens.

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee The layout unfolds over dramatic, hilly terrain that’s dotted with wetlands in lower-lying areas.

From The Fairway Every hole on No. 7 features something to test your game.

On The Green Just ask Tiger Woods, who won his lone Pinehurst title to date here in the 1992 Big I Junior Classic.

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee Opened in 1996 to commemorate Pinehurst’s centennial, Tom Fazio designed No. 8, synthesizing all the elements of the Pinehurst golf experience into one layout.

From The Fairway Fazio took full advantage of the 420 acres of rolling terrain and natural wetlands to fashion a course that’s visually enthralling and challenging yet fun to play.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee Jack Nicklaus has long commented that Pinehurst No. 2 is his favorite golf course from a design standpoint. On No. 9, he has constructed his masterpiece set amidst the longleaf pines. No. 9 is a magnificent 7,122-yard course and is as meticulously designed as it is compelling.
