Finkbine Golf Course
Finkbine Golf Course is the
University of Iowa Department of Athletics
championship golf course. Named for W.O. Finkbine,
who donated the land to The University of Iowa,
the course is located approximately one mile west
of the main campus at the intersection of Melrose
Ave. and Emerald St.
This scenic golf course, from the
championship tee, stretches over 7000 yards of
rolling Iowa terrain, and plays to a par 72 with a
USGA course rating of 74.1 and slope rating of
132. Large undulating greens, contoured fairways,
strategically located bunkers, hundreds of new
trees, and newly added tees add to the difficulty
of this very demanding golf course. In addition, a
six-acre lake and watering system takes care of
all the greens, tees, fairways and practice areas
to make Finkbine one of the most beautiful
collegiate golf courses in the country. Finkbine
has been the home to numerous NCAA tournaments
plus the Amana VIP Classic, and 1991 Hogan Tour,
and 1992 and 1993 Nike Tour Hawkeye Classic
tournaments.
