Pinehurst No. 2 is home to the 2024 US Open and the USGA-conducted major championship event on the PGA Tour. It is of the best-known golf courses in the United States, and it's home to one of the best golf tournaments on the planet in 2024, as well as for a number of occasions to come. The North Carolina resort is home to many famous courses, and it's an anchor site for USGA championships and the US Open nearly into the middle of the 21st century.

Not only is Pinehurst No. 2 a great golf course, but it is also home to the 2024 US Open, which features some of the best in the world playing the Donald Ross-designed masterpiece that was restored by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw in 2010.
