Rush Creek Golf Club

Rush Creek Golf Club opened in June 1996, designed by Bob Cupp and John Fought in Maple Grove northwest of Minneapolis. The course hosted the 2004 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship — where Ryan Moore won for the second time — and three LPGA Tour events, establishing serious competitive credentials.

The Cupp-Fought design philosophy emphasized creating distinct individual holes through varied terrain of native prairie grasses and wetlands. At 7,290 yards from the tips with a 75.7 rating, it is a genuine championship test.

A challenging public course with excellent conditioning and strong strategic elements. The design features wide-ranging hole variety — some reward aggression, others demand precision. The native prairie grasses and wetlands create a natural setting.

Each hole has distinct character, a hallmark of the Cupp-Fought collaborative philosophy. At 7,290 yards from the tips, the course is a serious test but multiple tees accommodate all skill levels.

Public access at $50-95 — strong value for championship-caliber golf.

Take advantage of the distinct character of each hole. Some reward aggression, others demand precision — read each hole individually.

At 7,290 yards from the tips, choose appropriate tees honestly.

The variety of holes means few assumptions carry from one to the next. Study each hole before swinging.

Native prairie areas are penal — keep the ball on maintained turf.
