Cog Hill Golf & Country Club’s Dubsdread (Course #4) in Lemont, Illinois, is a legendary championship course originally designed by Dick Wilson and later refined by Rees Jones. Wilson’s design philosophy, preserved by Jones, is evident in the course’s demanding nature, characterized by elevated greens, strategically pinched fairways, and an abundance of bunkers that surround greens and line fairways. Dubsdread places a high premium on shot-making ability, offering tight landing areas and requiring precise execution. It has consistently been ranked among America's 100 Greatest Public Golf Courses by Golf Digest and has hosted numerous professional events, including the Western Open and the BMW Championship, solidifying its reputation as a true test of golf. The 16th hole is often cited as a signature challenge, a demanding par 4 framed by trees and doglegging left around a ravine. Dubsdread offers a relentless yet rewarding experience, making it a must-play for serious golfers seeking a championship-caliber challenge in a natural, natural setting.
