Olympia Fields is pound-for-pound everything a golf enthusiast could ask for and more. From the largest locker room in the world to the first-class service the moment you hit the gate, OFCC is a true Midwest gem.

This course is a tale of two nines. The front nine is on one side of 87th street and features a prominent glacial ridge that runs through the middle of several holes creating significant elevation changes. The second nine has some big par 4/5s with some crazy Ross green complexes.

One of the most difficult courses in the U.S., will absolutely beat you up. Mend only club as there’s only a few left in the country, must play for sure. Green complex and speed is hard to describe. Great finishing holes.

The course is always in pristine condition — fast, pure greens, perfect fairways, and rough that still gives you a chance. The layout is so much fun. It flows naturally, has great variety, and the closing stretch from 13 to 18 is just awesome.

Very fun layout. Not a championship test or anything, but very fun. Hells Kitchen is awesome.

The second half of the renovation is now complete and all 18 holes are open. The renovation has the course looking amazing. There are still a few quirky holes on the front 9, but the back 9 really shines.

Impressive build for a golf course built on a dump. A good club as well. Some quirky holes but a fun round.

Great bones and a great Reno around 2010 to keep this place as close to original as they could. Possibly the best set of par 3s I have personally seen from Mr Ross. #4(3rd photo) is a top 5 hole from Donald
