The longest par-3, most Opens hosted and highest combined winning score in Oakmont history are just some unique quirks for the second major of 2016
5. Oakmont contains the longest par 3 in U.S. Open history.
- The par-3 8th played to 261, 279, 281 and 300 yards during the four rounds of the tournament in 2007. Those are four of the five longest distances in par-3 U.S. Open history, including the three longest. It will play at most 288 yards this year. Jordan Spieth hit a 3-wood at the hole during his practice round on Sunday. A 3-wood! Into a par-3.
