Hole 12 Par 4 471 yards

Another hole that has been lengthened for the US Open, this dogleg left par 4 now plays 471 yards. There is a bunker on the right of the corner that will be in play for those who opt for a driver from the tee. From there a mid-iron shot downhill plays into a green protected by bunkers on both front corners. Ridges break up a medium sized green.
