The Sunflower nine opened in 1978 and in 1982, the Hidden Valley and Sunflower nines became Alvamar Country Club. Alvamar was named by developer Bob Billings from the contraction of the names of his parents, Alva and Margaretta Billings of Russell, Kan. In all, Alvamar Golf Club and Country Club encompasses more than 3,000 acres of west Lawrence. The 36 holes at Alvamar were designed by Mel Anderson and Bob Dunning and include a public and private clubhouse, driving range and three practice greens. The two courses at Alvamar were the first in the United States to utilize zoysia grass for its fairways and tees. The course currently uses cohansey bent green on both surfaces. In 1991, Alvamar Country Club hosted the Kansas Amateur. Alvamar Golf Club annually hosts the Kansas Open and has been the site of the United States Golf Associations Women’s Public Links tournament. It was the site of the Big Eight Conference Men’s Championship for eight consecutive years, and in 1990, the Big Eight Conference 4 2011-12 Men’s Golf Guide Alvamar Golf Club Women’s Championship was held at Alvamar and won by the Jayhawks. Alvamar Golf Club hosted the inaugural Big 12 Women’s Championship in 1997 and has been the site of the KU men’s Kansas Invitational and women’s Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational. Having been honored as one of the “best maintained golf courses in the United States” by Grounds Maintenance Magazine, Alvamar continues to improve its attractive golf venue. At Alvamar Golf Club, the Director of Golf is Dave Dunn, while Dick Stuntz serves as head professional at Alvamar Country Club. Alvamar Country Club is considered one of the finest golf courses in the state. Alvamar’s reputation is one of the reasons KU attracts some of the top golfers in the country. 2011-12 Men’s Golf Guide 5 Knapheide Family Practice Facility The Kansas men’s golf program added a new member to the Jayhawk family in 2008: the state-of-the-art Knapheide Family Practice Facility.
