What to Expect
As a relatively accessible course, Rogers Park is suitable for mid to high handicappers, but don’t let that lull you into complacency; there are strategic holes that require careful club selection. Keep an eye out for water hazards and bunkers that can sneak up on you, especially on the back nine. A solid short game will serve you well here, particularly on the greens, which can be tricky due to undulation. Bring your A-game for the par 5s, where good positioning can lead to birdie opportunities.
