Less than five miles south of the Village of Pinehurst on a 900-plus-acre property called Pinehurst Sandmines is the most recent addition to the Pinehurst Resort lineup. Course No. 10 was imagined by one of modern-day golf course architecture’s greatest names, Tom Doak. Designed as a walking golf course, No. 10 offers a links-style experience with wide fairways, native grasses, and strategic bunkering, providing a unique and memorable round.

No. 10 is Pinehurst’s first new course in nearly three decades, but in truth it’s been centuries, even millennia, in the making. The landscape underlying Doak’s design features native wiregrass, sweeping landscape and rolling hills formed by geology. Midway through the course, it also takes advantage of rugged dunes carved out by mining operations around the turn of the 20th century.

The signature hole is No. 8, a par-4 that measures just 385 yards but golfers have to navigate a semi-blind tee shot over a 30-foot-high sand mound to a fairway that has more than a dozen mounds to a green also protected by another large mound. The most challenging hole is arguably the 13th, a par-4 tipping out at 500 yards.

The finished product is a spectacular course highlighted by 75 feet of elevation change that winds its way through the Sandhills on a path toward delivering a golf experience like no other.
