Two Man Links at Pinehurst: Fathers, Sons, and the Cradle of American Golf

There is a spot on the main campus at Pinehurst where you can stand and see most of American golf history at once. The 18th green of No. 2 is behind you — the one where Payne Stewart holed the putt in 1999. The first tee of No. 4 is a few paces away. Below the clubhouse, The Cradle's nine little holes tumble across the same ground where the first golf at Pinehurst was laid out in 1898. Maniac Hill, one of the game's first practice ranges, stretches out to the side. And in the middle of all of it sits a building that didn't exist two years ago: the Titleist Shop at Pinehurst.
