The rich heritage of the grounds of the Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club dates back to the mid-1940's, when the land was home to a U.S. Navy recreational facility. Situated on what was once called "South Base," the facility served as an annex to the Norman Naval Air Station.

 

In 1949, in coordination with the Navy and with the leadership of OU President George Lynn Cross, construction began on the OU Golf Course. At that time, famous golf course architect and native Oklahoman Perry Maxwell was commissioned to build the project, and in January 1951 the course opened for play.

 

In 1996, thanks to the generous contributions from OU supporters, and especially that of namesake Jimmie Austin, an extensive renovation of the course was completed. World-renowned course architect Robert Cupp was chosen for the redesign, which remained true to features envisioned by Maxwell some 50 years earlier.

 

Today, the Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club continues to reflect the level of excellence for which the University of Oklahoma is well-known. In recognition of this excellence, the course has played host to the 1997 Oklahoma State Amateur and NCAA Regional, the Big 12 Women’s Championship in 1998, and most notably the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship in 2009.
