The plan for No. 9

A right-side drive improves access to the green's running route.

Off the tee

Allow for the sloping landing area and the bunker interrupting it. Pick a stopping zone that leaves the next shot on grass.

Approach & recovery

The front-right surround can accept a low approach from a suitable lie. Give it room to feed across the surface instead of chasing a direct left line.

On the green

The ground feeds the ball right to left. Check how that movement affects both a running approach and the first putt.

Watch for

  • Centerline bunker
  • Sloping fairway
  • Right-to-left green

Research notes

  • A centerline bunker interrupts the sloping landing area. — Derek Duncan, Golf Digest (06:34–07:08)[1]
  • Right fairway position improves the approach. The front-right surround allows a running option, with slopes feeding the green from right to left. (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]
