Pinehurst Resortis agolfresort inPinehurst,North Carolina,United States. It has hosted a number of prestigious golf tournaments including threeU.S. Open Championships, oneU.S. Women\'s Open, threeU.S. Amateur Championships, onePGA Championship, and theRyder Cup.

Pinehurst consists of nine 18-holegolf courses, each named simply by a number, and a 9-hole short course. Pinehurst No. 2 has consistently been ranked as one of the top courses in North Carolina and among the best in the United States.In addition to the golf courses, Pinehurst has threehotels, as well as many villas,condos,restaurants, and other leisure facilities. Pinehurst Resort was inducted intoHistoric Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, since 1991.

Pinehurst was founded by Boston soda fountain magnateJames Walker Tufts. He purchased 5,500 acres (22km2) for approximately $1.25 per acre in 1895, and opened the Holly Inn New Year\'s Eve of that year. The first golf course was laid out in 1897-98, and the first championship held at Pinehurst was the United North and South Amateur Championship of 1901. Pinehurst\'s best known course, \"Pinehurst No. 2,\" was completed in 1907 to designs byDonald Ross, who became associated with Pinehurst for nearly half a century. After Pinehurst No. 2 was opened in 1907, Donald Ross said that the course was, \"The fairest test of championship golf I have ever designed.\"

From 1902-1951, Pinehurst was the home of theNorth and South Open, which was one of the most prestigious golf tournaments in the United States at that time. Pinehurst is still home to the annual North and South Amateur Golf Championships, a series of tournaments which includes aMen\'s Championship, inaugurated in 1901, and theWomen\'s Championshipthat began two years later.

The firstPGA Tourmajorstaged at Pinehurst was thePGA Championshipin1936, won byDenny Shute. In1951, the resort hosted theRyder Cup, and, in 1991 and 1992, it was the venue forThe Tour Championship.

In1999, Pinehurst staged its second major, theU.S. Open, won byPayne Stewartat the No. 2 course. There is currently a statue behind the 18th hole at Pinehurst No. 2 showing Stewart\'s famous victory pose after making a putt on the 18th hole to defeatPhil Mickelson.The U.S. Open returned in2005, won byNew Zealand\'sMichael Campbell. In 2011, Pinehurst No. 2 completed a $2.5 million, year-long renovation led by Bill Coore andBen Crenshaw. The goal was to revert the course back to the original Donald Ross design.

In an unprecedented move, the USGA brought both the men\'s U.S. Open and theU.S. Women\'s Opento Pinehurst No. 2 in 2014. The U.S. Open was scheduled at its normal time, ending on the third Sunday in June (Father\'s Day), and the women played the following week.

The resort now has nine golf courses, three hotels, a spa and extensive sports and leisure facilities. It was ranked as the world\'s largest golf resort by theGuinness World Recordsbefore it was surpassed byMission Hills Golf ClubinChina. The property’s old-growthlongleaf pinetrees are home to the federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker.

The No. 2 course is included in theLinksand theTiger Woods PGA Tourvideo game series; the No. 8 course is also available for theLinksgame. Both Pinehurst No. 2 and Pinehurst No. 8 are available to play on E6 software.

Pinehurst was owned by the Tufts family until 1970, when it was sold toMalcom McLean. The Tufts Archives are located in the Given Memorial Library in Pinehurst.After the property was acquired by a set of banks in 1982, it was sold toRobert H. Dedman, Sr., founder ofClubCorp.When the Dedman family sold ClubCorp, they retained Pinehurst.

In June 1999,National Public Radioreported that the Pinehurst Resort was using threats of trademark infringement lawsuits to prevent any businesses located in the area ofPinehurstvillage from using the term \"Pinehurst\" in their business names.
