Mike's Story

"I'm super blessed with what I get to do for a living and tremendously grateful that I get to come to work at a golf course every day.” 

– Mike O’Reilly, PGA

Director of Golf Operations, Kohler

Mike O'Reilly, from looper to Course Manager

“When I was 12 years old I started caddying and working in the back room at a small private club. There was a PGA professional there who took me under his wing a little bit and showed me what the business was all about. I didn't take a lot of lessons when I was in high school, but I watched a lot of the better players at the club play the game. I started competing in high school.


I'm super blessed with what I get to do for a living and tremendously grateful that I get to come to work at a golf course every day. I get to spend time playing with friends. And as a PGA professional, get to play host to guests and members coming to our facilities and enjoying their time. It's really about being outside, enjoying your time on the golf course with people you want to play with.”
