Joe Louis Golf Club tee times

Riverdale’s Joe Louis "The Champ" Golf Course, named after the legendary prizefighter Joe Louis, is a top choice for tournaments due to its championship layout. Known for its challenge, the course features the notable 614-yard, par-five 7th hole, which is the second-longest par-five in the Chicagoland area. The course is further distinguished by its large, undulating greens that test even seasoned players. With three sets of tees, 52 sand traps, and occasional water hazards, "The Champ" offers a stimulating experience for golfers of all skill levels. Steeped in Chicago’s rich history, the course remains a formidable opponent, echoing the strength and resilience of the former Heavyweight Champion of the World, Joe Louis, who frequently played here.
