COURSE OVERVIEW

The former Glenview Naval Air Station transforms into a links-style test that plays longer than its 7,149 yards suggest, with prairie winds whipping across wide-open fairways where F-14 Tomcats once roared. Tom Fazio carved dramatic elevation changes from perfectly flat terrain, creating a cerebral routing that demands course management over pure distance. The par-3 17th—a forced carry over wetlands to an island green—separates the weekend warriors from players who truly understand risk and reward.
