The new par 3 10th hole replaces the par 3 finishing hole from the 1997 U.S. Open and plays in the opposite direction. Because of the elevated teeing ground, this hole will generally play one club shorter. Any shot that lands short of the green will surely end up in the water. Distance control off the teeing ground will be important because a bailout long will leave a very difficult recovery to a green that slopes back toward the pond.
