The JSM Challenger of Champaign-Urbana 2011 was a tennis tournament that took place from November 14th to 19th, 2011 in Champaign (Illinois) . It was part of the ATP Challenger Tour 2011 , the tenth edition of the tournament, and was played indoors on a hard court.

The field of participants in the individual competition consisted of 32 players, that of the doubles competition consisted of 16 pairs. In the run-up to this, there was a qualifying round for the individual tournament in which four starting places were determined from 16 participants. As in the previous year, the prize money for the event totaled 50,000 euros.

The winner of the individual competition was the unseeded US American Alex Kuznetsov , who defeated the fourth-placed South African Rik De Voest in straight sets. It was Kuznetsov's third title at Challenger level and his only title of the season. Last year's winner Alex Bogomolov junior did not defend his title this year.

Individual finalist De Voest succeeded in the doubles competition at the side of his compatriot Izak van der Merwe in fourth place, in contrast to the individual, the final victory. They defeated the top seeded Martin Emmrich and Andreas Siljeström in the match tie break . As a result, van der Merwe managed to defend his title from the previous year, which he won together with Raven Klaasen . Klaasen failed this year with his new partner John Paul Fruttero in the semi-finals. De Voest was also able to win the Champaign doubles tournament for the second time after 2006. It was also his third title of the season at Challenger level and his 33rd career title in this category, for van der Merwe the twelfth Challenger title of his career and the fourth of the season. It was the fourth tournament they won together.
