Can’t believe this is a public golf course

Bolingbrook Golf Club in Illinois, designed by Arthur Hills and Steve Forrest and opened in 2002, boasts elevated tees, rolling fairways, seven lakes and plenty of space for spectators. GolfPass ranked it the No. 1 public course in Illinois for 2024. Highlights include the newly lengthened 621-yard 12th hole (now a par-5), the famous 151-yard island green 6th “party hole,” and the challenging 237-yard par-3 4th, which yielded just four birdies last year.

Rick Shiels is tackling Bolingbrook in his latest LIV Golf Chicago coverage on FOX and the LIV Golf App, aiming to break 75. On his channel he provides golf instruction, equipment reviews and match play against top pros. He also offers merch, a podcast, and plenty of tips to fix your slice, improve your irons and chipping, add backspin, and hole more putts.
