ATHENS COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Athens, GA, USA
Designed by Donald Ross
Athens Country Club, a fixture on Jefferson Road since its inception, embodies a classic, understated Southern golf experience. Woven through the rolling hills and hardwood forests just outside of downtown Athens, the course favors strategic play over brute power.
Originally designed by the lesser known John La Foy, the course reflects a mid-century design. Athens Country Club is characterized by tree-lined fairways and subtly contoured greens. The course presents a fair test to players of all skill levels. While not nationally prominent, its loyal membership and consistent conditioning make it a beloved course for those in the Classic City.
The club's heart lies in its friendly membership and storied local competitions. Although it has not hosted national championships, the club has played host to numerous state amateur events and regional qualifiers. The club is also known for its traditional Southern fare and convivial atmosphere that keeps the charm of Athens alive.

Great course for every day play. Played in the winter when it was wet so will need to get back in peak conditions. Very classic Ross with greens being the defense of the course
