Few public golf courses in any American city carry the distinction of being named after a woman, but Sarah Shank does — honoring a longtime Indianapolis parks administrator who shaped recreational life in the city for decades during the mid-20th century. The course sits within Garfield Park on Indianapolis's south side, one of the oldest parks in the city, and that civic heritage gives the place a character you don't find at a typical daily-fee layout.
As a municipally operated course embedded in an urban park, Sarah Shank is fundamentally a course for the community — accessible, affordable, and woven into the everyday fabric of Indianapolis golf. The terrain here is classic central Indiana: relatively flat, open ground softened by mature trees, with the kind of straightforward layout that rewards ball-strikers without punishing the occasional weekend player too harshly.
Indianapolis has a quietly solid public golf scene, and Sarah Shank sits near its heart — a place where juniors learn the game, regulars keep running tabs on each other's handicaps, and the city's south side shows up to play.
