Course Architecture
Donald Ross, the father of golf course architecture, designed Pinehurst No. 2 by blending the links course style of his homeland in Scotland with the unique topography of the North Carolina Sandhills. The resulting fusion produced what would become Ross’ signature design elements. Turtleback greens that require pinpoint accuracy to avoid runoff into treacherous wiregrass rough. Narrow, undulating fairways where level lies are as rare as birdies. At 7,485 yards in length, Pinehurst No. 2’s challenging layout is matched only by its stunning beauty.
