The plan for No. 16

Right-center avoids the left sandy ground and leaves a clear approach to the raised green.

Off the tee

Choose a club and line that keep the drive off the left native area. A reliable lie gives you more options into the target.

Approach & recovery

The resort favors finishing just short of the raised green over taking the tempting left bailout. Confirm the landing area from your actual angle.

On the green

The surface narrows toward the rear. Keep the approach inside that taper rather than treating a back flag as permission to use every yard.

Watch for

  • Left sandy ground
  • Raised green
  • Narrow rear section

Research notes

  • Right-center avoids the left sandy ground. The operator prefers a finish just short of the raised green over the more tempting left bailout. (Official hole information panel; written guidance)[1]
  • The green narrows toward a rear point with surrounding falloffs. — Derek Duncan, Golf Digest (10:46–11:16)[2]
  • Architect Angela Moser says the last green was approved in June 2023 and all 18 holes were being played by September. This supports using the January–February 2024 terrain as post-shaping evidence, subject to spatial checks. — Angela Moser, lead design associate (00:16:00–00:17:12)[3]
  • Pinehurst announced April 3, 2024 as No. 10’s opening date and identified Tom Doak as the designer. Its account highlights former quarry terrain and a hilltop stretch. (Opening-date announcement and Doak quotation)[4]
