About Athens Country Club

Athens Country Club is a private club in Athens, Georgia, founded by Lon Dudley and opened in 1926. The Dudley family guided the club through much of its history, shaping its development as a private club in the classic city.

The original 18-hole course was designed by Scottish architect Donald Ross, and the club has continued to maintain Ross's design principles over the years. The layout has hosted players of local and national standing, including Bob Jones. A third nine, originally laid out by architect George Cobb, a University of Georgia graduate, opened in 1985 and was redesigned by Ron Forse in 2024.
