The plan for No. 18

Right-center trades a little aggression for a clearer closing approach.

Off the tee

Favor a finish that keeps the green visible and the angle square. The ambitious left line needs a benefit beyond simply shortening the hole.

Approach & recovery

Open ground can permit a running approach from a clean lie. Match the landing point to the surface and the pace needed to stay on the green.

On the green

Runoffs make the body of the target the sensible starting point. An edge flag should not turn a sound finishing approach into a delicate recovery.

Watch for

  • Green runoffs
  • Left-side sand
  • Narrowing approach

Research notes

  • Open ground permits a running approach onto the finishing green. — Derek Duncan, Golf Digest (11:51–12:25)[1]
  • The right-center drive offers a clearer, squarer approach than the more aggressive left line. Runoffs around the green favor a central target. (Official hole information panel; written guidance)[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]
