Oakmont Country Club Prints
The 14th from the 2007 U.S. Open and the 18th, from the course that has hosted the most U.S. Opens.
Linda Hartough has painted two holes at Oakmont: the 14th, for the 2007 U.S. Open, and the 18th, which finishes below the clubhouse. Both are offered on canvas and on fine art paper.
The course is open and treeless for long stretches, the result of a tree-removal program that returned it to the look of its early years. Its greens are fast and tilted, and they have become the measure against which other championship greens are judged; the Stimpmeter, the device used to measure green speed, was devised by Edward Stimpson after he watched the 1935 U.S. Open at Oakmont. Between the 3rd and 4th holes lies the Church Pews, a long bunker divided by a series of grass ridges. The Pennsylvania Turnpike runs through the property, and the course is split across it. Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner restored the course in 2023.
Oakmont has hosted the U.S. Open ten times, more than any other course: in 1927, 1935, 1953, 1962, 1973, 1983, 1994, 2007, 2016 and 2025. It has also hosted three PGA Championships, in 1922, 1951 and 1978, the U.S. Women's Open in 1992 and 2010, and several U.S. Amateurs. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.
Choosing an Oakmont print
The 18th is the larger statement: its canvas goes from 12"x20" to 34"x60", and it shows the clubhouse members and guests know. The 14th is the championship piece, titled for 2007 and offered on canvas at 12"x20" or 21"x36". Both come on 15 3/8"x27" fine art paper for framing under glass.
