Golf Club of Illinois first opened for play in 1987. The course was designed by Dick Nugent.

Watch out for # 11, the 678 yard par-5 challenge is the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 4, the 175 yard par-3.

The Golf Club of Illinois is a classic links-style course featuring high fescue grasses, treacherous sand bunkers, and strategically placed mounds on each hole. The course has no trees in play, plus plenty of barren-land winds and only 3 holes involving water.

In 1990, the Golf Club of Illinois hosted the Illinois Open Championship which was won by Gary Pinns, the only player to break par in the tournament. This is a tough course.
