Past US Open Winners At Pinehurst No.2

It's one of the iconic courses in the USA with Pinehurst No.2 staging the US Open and US Women's Open a combined four times so far, with plenty more to come in the future.

The scene of one of the most iconic US Open celebrations when the late, great Payne Stewart won the trophy here in 1999, there have been top-quality winners over the years.

And since the USGA has signed a deal with Pinehurst meaning a combination of the US Open and US Women's Open will be returning every fix or six years until 2047, there'll be plenty of trophies being won here in the years to come.

Pinehurst No.2 was also the course the USGA used in 2014 for a historic event when they played the US Open and US Women's Open in consecutive weeks.
