Green Mile
The "Green Mile"
The closing three holes at Quail Hollow Club showcase a brutal stretch of fairways, greens and water hazards known as the "Green Mile", named after the 1999 prison movie.
Not quite the last walk of a death-row inmate, but the final 1,175 yards nevertheless provides an exacting march for the players.

The closing three holes at Quail Hollow Club showcase a brutal stretch of fairways, greens and water hazards known as the "Green Mile", named after the 1999 prison movie.
Not quite the last walk of a death-row inmate, but the final 1,175 yards nevertheless provides an exacting march for the players.
With the exception of Rory McIlroy, who tore up the "Green Mile" in a course-record 62 to win in 2010, these three holes are brutal.
Holes 16, 17 and 18 have ranked the third, second and first hardest at Quail Hollow Club for the past 10 renewals of the Quail Hollow Championship.
“It’s without doubt the hardest finish we play all season,” says Martin Laird.
This year, Quail Hollow Club plays host to the 2017 US PGA Championship.
