The Pines Country Club

The Pines Country Club in Morgantown, West Virginia, opens with a demanding stretch on the front nine. The first hole is bordered by out of bounds on the left and plays to a steeply uphill approach, making par a solid result.

The second ranks as the hardest hole on the outward nine, combining length with severe slopes that generally require three well-struck shots to find the green. The third is a straightforward par 3, though cross winds can push tee shots into the bunkers guarding the right side.
