Pinehurst No. 5, Pinehurst, North Carolina
It's no wonder Ellis Maples would design a Pinehurst golf course
- his father was Donald Ross' right hand for over 40 years. Opened
in 1961, No. 5 holds true to a key Ross feature - Mother Nature
as the best guide in golf architecture. The course has more water
hazards to negotiate than any other course at Pinehurst. It is also
one of the prettiest - especially the par-three 15th, known as the
Cathedral Hole. What you'll see is a lot of variety in the layout
- uphill and downhill, left-to-right and right-to-left, long and
short par fours. Overall, it is a very playable, enjoyable 18 holes
that will not disappoint.
