The Champion Trace course at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky – site of the 2023 Barbasol Championship on the PGA Tour – was designed by architect Arthur Hills and opened in 1987.
The private layout meanders through rolling hills not far from Lexington. It will play to 7,328 yards with a par of 72 for this week’s Barbasol Championship. The event has been played on the Champion Trace layout since 2015.
