#1 at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club
#1 at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club is the Grandfather of all the Pinehurst Resort courses, designed by Donald Ross and coming up on it's centennial anniversary. Some of the holes on this course go back to the beginning of Pinehurst. The pond in front of the 11th green is visible on maps dating to the course's opening in 1899.
Don't let the 6,102-yard scorecard fool you! It's definitely not as easy as the distance indicates. If you're not consistent off the tee or have a sloppy short game, you won't score. Try getting home on the par-four second in two without a good drive! Some holes require draws; others, fades. All demand precise approaches to the tiny greens.
This course reflects the Ross tradition and is one of the basic templates for classic golf courses throughout the world
