Former All Black coach and current NZ Open tournament chairman John Hart said it best when he described it as “a great vibe”. Thousands followed the newly crowned NZ Open champion uphill and down as he weaved his way to a memorable win across four days of spellbinding golf. The 105th New Zealand Golf Open can legitimately lay claim to being the greatest golf tournament this country has ever seen. We’ve seen bigger name players and bigger crowds – even more spectacular courses, but we’ve never seen an event like this.
