English, IN

Lucas Oil Golf Course, formerly Old English Golf Course, is in English, Indiana, about 39 miles west of Louisville. After a 1990 flood left the old downtown under nearly 10 feet of water, the town moved to higher ground. Local residents Cary Hammond and Mark Megenity pushed to turn the empty valley into Crawford County's first golf course. Michael Hurdzan designed it. The first nine opened in 2001 and the second in 2002. The front nine is mostly flat and runs through the old town streets along the Little Blue River, while the back nine climbs into the ridges with big elevation changes. It plays 6,830 yards at par 72 from the back tees with a 132 slope. It is open to the public, about 16 miles south of French Lick and 25 miles from Sultan's Run.
