Pinehurst No. 8 opened in 1996 to celebrate Pinehurst’s first 100 years, earning it the nickname “The Centennial Course.” Originally designed by Tom Fazio, No. 8 combines classic Pinehurst elements with the natural beauty of the landscape. No. 8 is unique when compared to other Pinehurst courses, but it still has that distinct Pinehurst feel. No. 8 has beautiful views of wetlands and plenty of longleaf pines.
