That was the one hole on the course I really just hated. The tee shot is okay, if awkward, but the green is just a zit in the middle of a large bowl, and for a short hitter it must be approached blind, to boot.
I disliked it so much that it took me until #5 to have a chance of liking a hole again.
I have no problem with #2 at Erin Hills. A blind shot to a small target is a little awkward (but still fun), but the green complex is not overly severe, so it's not like the short hitter will rack up a 10 if his shot bounds over the green or falls short.
In a match play context, holes like #2 at Erin Hills and #14 at Bandon Trails are no issue--just one hole in an 18-hole match (and at Erin Hills it comes early in the round so it certainly won't be a decider of the match).
In a stroke play context, sometimes par has to be made with a chip and a putt instead of two putts, but on such a short hole that may be hard to take mentally.
In the end, Erin Hills may be like Cruden Bay in the sense that there are some great holes out there, and a couple of awkward (some would even say bad, though I wouldn't) holes. But there are no boring holes at Erin Hills.
But that's the kind of golf consumer I am--thrill me, wow me, confuse me, maybe even irritate me--just don't bore me.
