Oakmont Country Club - Holes 5-9

Oakmont Country Club (Plum, Pennsylvania) - Holes 5-9

Oakmont Country Club is renowned as one of the most iconic and challenging golf courses in the world. Established in 1903 by Henry C. Fownes, the course was designed to be an "inland links" style layout, emulating the traditional courses of Great Britain.

Oakmont is infamous for its incredibly fast and undulating greens, deep and strategically placed bunkers—most notably the formidable "Church Pew" bunkers—and punishing thick rough. Its design demands precision and strategic play, and the course has earned a reputation for rewarding perfect shots and severely punishing mistakes.

Throughout its storied history, Oakmont has hosted more U.S. Opens than any other course, with the 2025 U.S. Open marking its tenth time hosting the prestigious championship. It has also been the site of numerous other major championships, including the PGA Championship and U.S. Amateur, cementing its place as a true cathedral of golf.
