Chicago is known by various
nicknames: Windy City, Chi-
town, the Second City, and the
City of the Big Shoulders. It is
also known as the public golf
capital of the US. There are
more than 200 courses in the
area, and high-quality golf
fields are in abundance. Some
of the best ones are listed
below.
The Glen Club: Tom Fazio’s
masterpiece has acres of
rolling hills and lakes amidst a
busy suburban area. What
makes the place a remarkable
feat of engineering are the
natural-looking features and
topography that were
transformed from a naval air
station.

hole golf course one of the
best there is in the city. The
Dubsdread course is even
listed in Golf Magazine’s 100
greatest public courses.

Those looking for a challenge
can opt to play here because

the form of waste areas and
water.

course in Chicago, there are 27

Chicago Golf Club: Not only
is it a superb golf course, it is

ever 18-hole golf course and
the club that initiated the out-
of-bounds rule.
