Atkins Golf Club

Atkins Golf Club in Urbana, Illinois is a public 18-hole championship course and the home of Fighting Illini golf at the University of Illinois. Gifted to the university by The Atkins Group and private donors, it blends the classic Nugent design with modern updates to create a premier central Illinois experience. In 2021, Drew Rogers redesigned the layout, preserving character while elevating shot-making for today’s players. Golfers enjoy bentgrass fairways and premium USGA greens, five sets of tees, and a fair yet challenging design. The course measures 7,538 yards from the Championship tees, plays to a par of 72, and features a slope of 137 with a rating of 76.0. Located just minutes from the Champaign-Urbana campus and local attractions, Atkins offers a campus-inspired, community-driven setting with tree-lined fairways and pristine conditioning. Unique features include a meticulously maintained back nine and strong conditioning year-round. For easy booking, GolfWithBrio makes scheduling fast and seamless.
