Queenstown shines for 2026 Queenstown Golf Week

Queenstown shines at 2026 Queenstown Golf Week

Amazing golf and jaw-dropping scenery greeted SGA Golfers once again

SGA returned to Queenstown, New Zealand, for the 2026 Queenstown Golf Week, one of our most popular, must-play overseas tournaments.

With perfect golf weather, and some of New Zealand's top courses on offer, our golfers were once again treated to an exceptional week of golf.

2026 Queenstown Golf Week Recap

ARRIVAL AND WELCOME DINNER

Following a short flight from Australia, golfers made their way to Crowne Plaza Queenstown, our new home-base for the week. That night, golfers and their partners/guests enjoyed a hosted Welcome Party in a private function room, overlooking the lake. They were treated to good food and drinks, a relaxed vibe, beautiful views of Queenstown, and a jovial atmosphere as they met their fellow golfers (many set to be life-long friends) for the week.

DAY 1 MILLBROOK CORONET

On the Monday, our golfers played the magnificent Millbrook Golf Club, host of the NZ Open. Millbrook's 36-hole facility was a real treat for our golfers to experience it in all its glory. The Coronet course was the star of the day, with amazing views, spectacular fairways (for those of us who could hit them!) and tricky but true greens. Despite the winds kicking up for the back-9, making the round extra challenging, the fun never stopped. Just a perfect start to our week. The course staff were friendly and helpful, and our golfers had a great time.

DAY 2 MILLBROOK REMARKABLES

A cloudy but calm day proved to be just the ticket for Round 2. Our golfers were treated to a spectacular Millbrook Remarkables course, in great condition, and barely a breath of wind. The leaderboard saw some movers and shakers, with Danielle Jones scoring a fantastic 40 points, Paul Charker and Di Moody on 37, and Michelle Jarvis on 36.

DAY 3 - REST DAY

A well-earned "rest day" for many of our golfers in Queenstown. There is SO MUCH to do in the area, it's hard to choose just one or two activities. While some of our guests took the opportunity to rest, others took the day to explore Queenstown, "the Adventure Capital of the World"

DAY 4 - JACK'S POINT GC

Day 4 of the 2026 Queenstown Golf Week saw golfers experience the spectacular Jack's Point - a bucket-list golf course for golfers across the planet, and the South Island's #1-rated course.

Everyone had a blast playing one of the best and most picturesque courses on the planet. With spectacular views of the Remarkables mountain range and Lake Wakatipu, the course proved to be challenging and enjoyable.

The leaderboard saw heaps of movement, with a stunning 41 points by Anthony Moscato, seeing him shoot to the top of A grade, leading Paul Charker by 2 points, followed by Danielle Jones and David Warwick a couple shots back. In B Grade, Michelle Jarvis hopped into the lead by 2 points over SGA stalwart Ivan Jones. They were followed by Neil Howland, Cathy Charker and Tony Eldridge.

DAY 5 - QUEENSTOWN GOLF CLUB

Round 4 saw us at the gorgeous Queenstown Golf Club, one of the most scenic and picturesque courses you'll ever play. The course -- located in Kelvin Heights, on an island across the bay from the city of Queenstown -- was a smash with golfers, and a treat to play.

And while the clouds hovered over us for most of the morning, it eventually gave way to some glorious sunshine.

When the final scores were tallied, it was a runaway victory for SGA regulars, the "Tiger" and "Tigress" Woods... Anthony Moscato taking A grade by 9 points over Danielle Jones and Paul Charker... and Michelle Jarvis grabbing B grade by 10 points over Ivan Jones and Neil Howland.

The round was followed by a sumptuous awards lunch at the club, where golfers shared a meal with their new mates, and reflected on a truly memorable week.
