Pinehurst No. 8
 
In celebration of its 100th birthday, Pinehurst introduces The Centennial-Pinehurst No. 8, opened spring of 1997. Designed as a modern-day version of No. 2, The Centennial-Pinehurst No. 8 is solid, straightforward golf, void of artificial earth movements and difficult forced carries. Some bunkers that appear to be greenside are actually 20 yards in front of the greens, thus creating a challenge in depth perception. With no real estate interferences or distractions, No. 8 is a course for the purist, for the golfer, of whatever skill level, who wants to experience the game as it was intended to be played. For the sheer sport of it.

Access has done a great job for this course. Partner to the new version of Pinehurst #2, it was released by Access in 1999. It was actually the last course released before the Microsoft takeover.
