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

Hole 6 - Par 3 - 219 yards

The sixth hole, and the first par 3 hole, at Pinehurst Resort is arguably the most difficult of the par 3 holes. Instead of a driver, players will most likely be looking to use medium to long irons. One of the deepest bunkers on the course is located at the front left of the green. Putts from the back of the green are extremely fast and therefore players will most like attempt to aim towards the front.
