Golf Monthly takes an in-depth look at Pinehurst No.2 ahead of the 2014 US Open

15th hole - Par 3 - 202 yards

Apart from Pinehurst's fifth hole, this green plays smaller than any other green on the course. Players that manage to shoot shots that land on the front portion with most like end up in a collection area. Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw renovated this green restoring the right side of putting surface to its intended width. As seen in the image above, recovering from the right hand bunker is not without its difficulties.
