Greg Ohlendorf:
Golfing around the world
The president and CEO of $200 million-asset First Community Bank and
Trust in Beecher, Ill., wrote a book relaying his successful journey to be
one of the first people to complete the 2010 Golfweek Magazine Top 100
Modern and Classic courses, the Golf Magazine 2005-2013 Top 100 World
courses, and a course in all 50 states.
me 100% of the time. But ... you can
handicap golf, so all skill levels can
play together.
I started as a 10-year-old at a little
local public golf course in my
hometown. My parents owned a funeral
home and an ambulance company, and
we were tied to being home 24 hours a
day, seven days a week, 365 days a year,
so we didn't get to travel. We didn't go on
vacations ... so golf was something that I
could do, because the course was a mile
from home.
Golf is so interesting, because
you can play as a single [or] you
can meet and join with three other
golfers and become instant friends.
You play at beautiful places, beautiful
landscapes, and it's outdoors, which
is great. All golfers don't have to be
the same ability. The analogy I use
is if I played tennis against you and
you're better than I am, you'll beat
68 Q ICBA Independent Banker Q January 2022
I started as a golf course rater
[for Golfweek Magazine]in 2004.
They had this list of courses [and]
they wanted us to see as many as we
could and provide ratings, so that
the [annual] ranking lists could be
created. I liked the idea of what was
on the list, so I started playing a group
of them. I never expected that I could
play the 100 Modern and 100 Classic
in the same year, and certainly never
expected the Top 100 World.
It's cool to go to a variety of
places, rather than the same place
every year. And that's what chasing
a list or chasing a goal helps force you
to do: things you wouldn't otherwise
have done.
