The 1986 Rees Jones-designed No.7 golf course at the famous Pinehurst Resort may not be everyone’s first choice but it’s certainly a challenging and at times dramatic layout that is naturally eclipsed by No.2.

Pinehurst (No.7)
The 1986 Rees Jones-designed No.7 golf course at the famous Pinehurst Resort may not be everyone’s first choice but it’s certainly a challenging and at times dramatic layout that is naturally eclipsed by No.2.
The No.7 course was laid over the site of a former 9-hole course which was fashioned by Donald Ross for the use of Pinehurst's employees.
Tiger Woods claimed his only Pinehurst title on No.7 in 1992 when he led wire-to-wire to win the Big I Junior Classic. Woods became only the second junior, after Billy Andrade, to win two Insurance Youth Golf Classic titles.
