Butler National
Butler National Golf Club is home to one of the top-rated and finest championship golf courses in Illinois. However, this is a private course generally playable only by its male members and their male guests.
The excellent tree-lined and open parkland layout contains a wealth of wonderfully crafted, memorable and challenging holes. A would-be U.S. Open Championship course, but for its male-only membership policy.
Butler National is a private, men-only golf club. Male guests may only play if hosted by a member. Women are not allowed on the property, including the clubhouse and golf course.
Non-metal spike facility. Walking permitted. Caddies available.
Excellent
Butler National was the host venue for the PGA Tour's Western Open tournament from 1974-1990 (now known as the BMW Championship). In 1985, Scott Verplank became only the second amateur player after Chick Evand (1910) to claim victory in this prestigious tournament.
World: formerly ranked world's 94th best course (GOLF magazine, 1993; not in subsequent editions of this ranking).
USA: 47th best course in the USA (Golf Digest, 2019/20).
State: 2nd best course in Illinois (Golf Digest, 2019/20).
Ryder Cup: Rome plays host to the first ever Ryder Cup to be staged in Italy, with the USA defending golf’s greatest team trophy at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club (Sept 29-Oct 1).
Solheim Cup: also in September, also in southern Europe, the 18th Solheim Cup will be contested at Finca Cortesin on the Costa del Sol, with Europe defending after their surprise win in Toledo, Inverness Club (Ohio) in 2021 (Sept 22-24).

Céline Boutier: with many successes as both an amateur and professional golfer, Boutier added a major championship title to her impressive résumé at this year’s Evian Championship.
Alex Cejka: buffeted by rain and high winds, especially on the high-scoring final day, Čejka prevailed over Pádraig Harrington in a playoff at Royal Porthcawl, to scoop the Senior Open Championship title.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
