Southern Hills Prints
The 12th, from the 2001 U.S. Open in Tulsa.
Linda Hartough painted the 12th at Southern Hills, a par 4 turning to a well-bunkered green, for the 2001 U.S. Open, which Retief Goosen won in a Monday playoff.
Southern Hills Country Club, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, opened in 1936, in the middle of the Depression. The oilman Waite Phillips donated the land, and Perry Maxwell, an Oklahoman best known for his greens, designed the course. Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner restored it in 2018 and 2019, bringing back the rough-edged bunkers and green shapes that Maxwell had built.
Southern Hills has hosted eight men's major championships. It has staged the U.S. Open three times, in 1958, 1977 and 2001; Retief Goosen won the 2001 championship in a Monday playoff against Mark Brooks. It has hosted the PGA Championship five times, in 1970, 1982, 1994, 2007 and 2022, when Justin Thomas won.
