Golf in Silvis

Silvis is a Rock Island County city in the Quad Cities metropolitan area, immediately adjacent to Milan and Moline along the Mississippi River corridor. The city's most significant distinction in the golf world is as the home of TPC Deere Run, the permanent site of the PGA Tour's John Deere Classic. The presence of a PGA Tour venue gives Silvis an outsized golf identity relative to its modest size. Short Hills Country Club also serves the community, reflecting the Quad Cities tradition of private club golf alongside the region's signature tournament venue. Illinois' position as a crossroads state — linking the Great Lakes to the Mississippi, the industrial north to the agricultural south — creates diverse communities where golf serves as common ground across the state's varied economic landscapes.
