Can You Play Olympia Fields on GSPro? Here's How

Olympia Fields Country Club is available on GSPro. The LIDAR community build of the North Course captures the Willie Park Jr. design that hosted the 1928 and 2003 US Opens, and more recently the 2020 BMW Championship where Jon Rahm and Dustin Johnson traded blows in a FedEx Cup playoff event.

Olympia Fields North is a classic design from the golden age of American golf architecture. The course sits on rolling Illinois terrain with narrow fairway corridors, deep-faced bunkers, and green complexes that demand precision. The 2003 US Open proved that Olympia Fields could still challenge the best players in the world with Jim Furyk winning at 8-under par.

Quality Assessment

The GSPro LIDAR build of Olympia Fields North is a solid conversion. The course has moderate elevation change — more than the flat Chicago-area stereotype would suggest — and the LIDAR data captures the movement accurately. The fairways at Olympia Fields are among the narrowest of any US Open venue, and the LIDAR build preserves the penalty for missing the short grass.

The 18th hole, a 490-yard par-4 with a creek running up the left side and crossing in front of the green, is the signature. The approach shot must carry the creek to a green protected by a deep bunker right. The LIDAR build handles this correctly.

The visual presentation is standard LIDAR community quality. The course is tree-lined, and the generic forest textures do not capture the specific character of the private club setting. The playability and routing accuracy are what matter here, and both are solid.
