Impressive build for a golf course built on a dump. A good club as well. Some quirky holes but a fun round.

Such a shame… Arcis golf ruining a Pete Dye design. Really a great layout, tests aspects of your game. But that’s where the good ends and is the only reason it gets the score it does. Course is a free for all, no management bunkers are quite honestly the worst I’ve seen.

Dubsdread is about as classic as Chicago public golf gets. A true championship test with a rich PGA Tour history, this Dick Wilson and Joe Lee design still lives up to its “hard but fair” reputation.

This course is a tale of two nines. The front nine is on one side of 87th street and features a prominent glacial ridge that runs through the middle of several holes creating significant elevation changes. The second nine has some big par 4/5s with some crazy Ross green complexes.

Olympia Fields is pound-for-pound everything a golf enthusiast could ask for and more. From the largest locker room in the world to the first-class service the moment you hit the gate, OFCC is a true Midwest gem.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s layout rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Layout is the layout score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs layout ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Hammond, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
