Pinehurst No. 2: Hole 8

A hole-by-hole look at Pinehurst No. 2 ahead of the US Open in June.

Posted Updated

Par 4, 502 yards, HCP 15/17

Typically a par-5, it will play as a 4 in the Open. Placement is key with a significant back-to-front slope on the green.

Our take:

Gerald Owens, anchor/reporter: We played this hole as a par-5. The pros will play it as a challenging par-4. I pared it, which means plenty of birdies should find hole No. 8 for the pros.
