at 7,698 yards, I believe. Bellerive is long at now 7,547, & I think was the longest the PGA Tour played in ‘92 during the PGA Championship at Bellerive.
They removed some trees over the course of the last 4 years for site lines to multiple holes for fans for this PGA Championship, but Bellerive will still be about how they drive. The par 3 holes provide a lot of intrigue though. For instance the par 3 6th can be a train wreck & put a dent in some rounds. Otoh, the long 10th hole will really challenge & put some players in a hole out of the gate for some players who start their round on the back nine Thursday & Friday.
It will also be interesting to see the hole placements on what can be tough greens with a lot of protection around them.
