Purdue Golf and Tee Times at LastMinuteGolferIn 1994, famed golf course architect Pete Dye walked what was the North Course of the Purdue University Golf Courses. His goal was to come up with possible changes that could be made due to an upcoming road construction project. Pete's plan became much more than a simple renovation. His personal goal was to produce a golf course that would be both a challenge to the collegiate golfer and act as a classroom for the students of Purdue.

With Pete on board, fundraising began and in the fall of 1996 Pete, Superintendent Jim Scott and 32 Purdue students began the construction. The departments of Forestry, Entomology, Water Quality Testing, Agronomy and other schools at Purdue all became involved.

The result is the Kampen Course, a unique links-style layout with strategically placed waste bunkers, native grasslands, man-made wetlands and large greens. Measuring over 7,300 yards from the Black Tees, it is a true test of golf for all players. The course is named in honor of Emerson Kampen and his support of Purdue Athletics. His statue overlooks the 1st tee.

The Kampen Course has already received high marks, being ranked as one of the most difficult golf courses in Indiana and as one of the top collegiate courses in the nation. Such notoriety has brought the many prestigious collegiate tournaments to the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex. A few of the most recent include:


2003 Women's NCAA Championship
2004 NCAA Men's Regional
2004 Indiana Open
2005 Women's Western Amateur
2005 Trusted Choice Big 'I' Junior Classic

The Kampen Course will also host the 2008 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championships!


Good luck as you test your skills on the same layout that the nation's top collegiate players have competed on. Go Boilers!
