TPC Deere Run: D.A. Weibring’s River Valley Course and John Deere Classic Home
TPC Deere Run winds through wooded ravines beside the Rock River, blending a classic Midwestern landscape with the PGA TOUR stage of the John Deere Classic.
TPC Deere Run opened in 2000 and was designed by D.A. Weibring, a former PGA TOUR player and Illinois native. The 18-hole, par-71 course stretches along the wooded ravines of the Rock River on a former Arabian horse farm. Its natural slopes, hardwood trees, small ponds and deep ravines create a championship layout that remains open to public play.

01 / COURSE
The course follows the natural movement of the Rock River valley rather than a flat resort grid. D.A. Weibring used elevation changes, wooded ravines and water features to give the holes a varied rhythm. The result is a Midwestern parkland course with a strong sense of place, where the land contributes to the strategy as much as the bunkers and greens.

02 / COURSE
TPC Deere Run has been the home of the John Deere Classic since its opening year. The annual tournament brings a professional setup to the course, with grandstands and spectator areas along key holes. Players visiting outside tournament week can still experience the same routing, though everyday tee positions and conditions differ from the championship setup.

TPC Deere Run is open to public play and publishes tee-time information through its official channels. Five sets of tees provide options for different abilities, while the championship setup extends beyond 7,200 yards. Check the current booking calendar and event closures before planning a visit around the John Deere Classic.
The Rock River is more than a view—it shapes the routing.
Weibring’s design uses the river valley, wooded ravines and rolling ground to give TPC Deere Run its character. The tournament history adds a stage, but the landscape supplies the strategy.
