A Cook County Forest Preserve golf course. Named after prize fighter Joe Louis (who loved golf almost as much as boxing), Riverdale’s Joe Louis “The Champ” Golf Course is a tournament favorite because of its championship layout. A challenging course to begin with, the signature 614 yard, par five 7th hole (the second longest par five in the Chicagoland area) as well as “The Champ’s” large undulating greens raise the stakes.
