The John E. Walker Sr. Golf Course (often referred to as the Walker Course) is an 18-hole golf course on the campus of Clemson University in South Carolina. Its signature 17th green and bunkers echo the university's tiger paw logo.[2]

It is a stop on the Pier-Flats CAT Bus route.

In 2012, the Professional Golfers' Association of America ranked the Walker Course as the 9th best university golf course in the United States.[3]
