Video: The Mood For Merion, 5th Hole Flyover

I giggled watching this U.S. Open flyover as it does not do justice to one of the greatest greens in golf. But the ground before the putting surface is pretty sensational too, making this one of the very best par-4s on the planet and likely a spot I'll try to set up shop during U.S. Open week.

To try and describe the green would be unfair other than to say it's a masterpiece of lay-of-the-land architecture with numerous "pockets" for hole locations. Anywhere on this green in two means you've hit two outstanding shots and a par-4 will have come after two fine putts.
