LOOK: ‘The Jake’ golf facility is making quick progress

The Oregon Ducks golf practice facility is quickly going up out at Emerald Valley Golf Course.

One of the newest state-of-the-art athletic facilities is currently being built for the Oregon Ducks men’s and women’s golf teams out at Emerald Valley Golf Course in Creswell, and it appears to be coming along nicely.

‘The Jake’ is a multi-million dollar practice facility that is going up just south of Eugene, named after Peter and Jan Jacobsen, a pair of historic figures in the world of Oregon golf. It is a 6,000-square-foot facility with three indoor driving bays, an indoor putting studio, and a heated outdoor driving range.

The facility broke ground earlier this spring and is expected to be completed at some point this fall, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony expected ahead of one of the Ducks’ home games during the 2023 season. This past week, Emerald Valley GC gave an update on how things are coming along a few months into the process, and it looks like a lot of progress is being made.
