BEVERAGE. THE DISTRICT WOULD OFFICIALLY TAKE EFFECT ON JULY. 11TH, WE'RE JUST OVER A MONTH AWAY FROM THE U.S. OPEN. AS YOU LOOK LIVE OVER PINEHURST WHERE THE TOURNAMENT WILL TAKE PLACE. THIS IS A DIFFERENT LOOK, RIGHT? CLEARLY THEY ARE SETTING UP. >> COME JUNE. THIS PLACE WILL BE PACKED. WRAL SPORTS, PAT WELTER IS JOINING US LIVE NOW ON THE COURSE. PAT, YOU'VE GOT A REALLY GOOD LOOK AT THE SET UP FOR THIS BIG EVENT. >> WELL, TELL YOU WHAT, LENA. I'VE GOT THE GEAR. IF ONLY I HAD THE GAME TO MATCH IT. CAUSE PIONEERS REALLY HOOKED US UP TO DATE. A GAME OF THIS U.S. OPEN HAT GAVE ME A BRAND NEW GLOVE. EVEN LET US PLAY THIS HISTORIC COURSON. THIS IS THE MOST DEMOCRATIC OF MAJORS AS I'M OUT HERE RIGHT NOW, WORKING ON THE PUTTING GREEN. THERE ARE 10,000 ENTRANCE TO THE U.S. OPEN. ALMOST MADE MY FIRST SHOT THERE. ONLY 156 MAKE IT NOW AFTER WORK ON MY PUTTING GAME HERE TO THE REST OF TIME AND I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CONQUER THESE DONALD ROSS GREENS. THIS PLACE IS A MASTERPIECE. AND I WAS NOT WORTHY. IT'S THE CRADLE OF AMERICAN GOLF. >> I NURSED A SPECIAL IN SO MANY WAYS. I THINK IT'S IT'S HISTORY. THE ARCHITECT ON ROSS. THIS WAS HIS MASTERPIECE. THE USDA CHIEF CHAMPIONSHIPS OFFICER JOHN BORDEN. HAMMER SAYS NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED HERE SINCE PINEHURST LAST HOSTED IN 2014 NUMBER 2 IS ALWAYS MAJOR READY. YOU HAVE TO EVERY HOLE, MAKE SURE YOU CAN PLAY AND YOU EVEN FROM THE GREENS ARE SO FAST. >> LAST YEAR'S U.S. OPEN CHAMP, WYNDHAM CLARK CAN ATTEST. SO CAN I ARE. WE'RE PLAYING WITH THE PINEHURST CALLAWAY HERE AS WELL THAT I'M SURE WILL PROMPTLY LOSE. DONALD ROSS HAD ME HUMBLED. >> AND ASKING THE GOLF GODS, MERCY. I COULD BE HERE ALL DAY LONG. THIS IS HOW I AM AND HEALTH FROM THE SAND TRAPS. TOUGHEST TEST IN GOLF. TO THE GREENS. I'M STANDING LIKE THIS, CHRIS, BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT GOLFERS THERE. THIS COURSE WILL TAKE EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT. COME ON. DONALD ROSS. THERE SURE IS. HERE. YEAH. I'LL TELL YOU GUYS WHAT SHOUT OUT TO MY CADDIE, WALTER, WHO WAS GIVING ME SUCH GREAT ADVICE. HE'S A WRAL VIEWERS AS HE WATCHES EVERY NIGHT. I JUST COULD NOT MANAGE TO REALLY DO ANYTHING WITH IT. BUT THE TAKEAWAY HERE IS JUST HOW DIFFICULT THESE GREENS ARE GOING TO BE FOR THESE GOLFERS WHEN CLARK'S SAID PREPARE FOR FROM AND FAST. THIS IS CHAMPION BERMUDA, GREEN GRASS OUT HERE. ONLY THE BEST AT PINEHURST. >> IT LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL OUT THERE. AND YOU KNOW, YOU GOT COMING OR TIGER ON THERE. YOU ARE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT GETTING THAT LAST. DO IT. >> I KNEW WHAT I GOT DRESSED THIS MORNING. I THOUGHT ABOUT PULLING THE RED PAUL A LOT. WE DON'T KNOW. BUT I KNEW THE GOLF GAME. I WAS GOING TO DISPLAY ON TV FOR YOU ALL. AND IT WAS NOT GOING TO LIVE UP TO THAT EITHER READ. BOY, DRESSED IN KIND OF THIS PART, TOO. THERE'S A LOT OF WAYS I COULD HAVE ADDED THAT AS I DID IT THE GOOD STUFF FOR. YEAH, THAT'S MY I WOULD NEVER PUT ON 23 ON A BASKETBALL COURSE.
