US Open 2016 Oakmont Country Club: Hole 3
The third hole at Oakmont Country Club is where golfers first face the wonderful Church Pews bunker down the left which has to be avoided off the tee.
Right is a no-go zone as well. There are five bunkers in-range off the tee as well as out-of-bounds further right of them so the long-hitters or anyone struggling with their driver will probably keep the big dog in the bag.
A good 3-wood or 2-iron for the professionals will leave them a mid-short iron into the green.
The green is raised but relatively flat so if the fairway is found, a birdie can be made.
