New Zealand shines at 2024 SGA Queenstown Golf Week

New Zealand shines for 2024 Queenstown Golf Week

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

SGA returned to Queenstown, New Zealand, for the 2043 Queenstown Golf Week, and the trip proved to be everything (and more) that golfers look for in a golf trip.

With some of New Zealand's top courses on offer, including Millbrook's Coronet and Remarkables courses, Jack's Point and Queenstown Golf Club, our golfers were once again treated to an exceptional week of golf.

2024 Queenstown Golf Week Recap

ARRIVAL AND WELCOME DINNER

Following a short flight from Australia, golfers made their way to Ramada Queenstown, our home-base for the week. That night, guests enjoyed a hosted Welcome Party at the Queenstown Skyline Stratosfare restaurant, at the top of the famous Queenstown Gondola. Golfers and their partners were treated to good food and drinks, a relaxed vibe, sweeping 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 - FIRST ROUND, MILLBROOK (REMARKABLES)

The event kicked off at the gorgeous Millbrook Golf Club, host OF the NZ Open. The 36-hole facility was a real treat for our golfers to experience it in all its glory. The course featured gorgeous scenery all around, which (if you're not careful) can distract you from the golf itself. Overall, it was a challenging and enjoyable golf course. The course staff were friendly and helpful, and our golfers had a great time. Thanks to the course and staff for hosting us and making it a memorable day.

DAY 2 - SECOND ROUND, JACK'S POINT GC

Day 2 of the 2024 Queenstown Golf Week saw golfers experience Jack's Point - a jaw-dropping, eyeball-widening, heart-pumping bucket-list golf course. With GORGEOUS views at every hole, it had our golfers taking more photos than golf swings. Trust us when we say: PLAY THIS COURSE!

Thanks to the entire team at Jack's Point for hosting us. Everyone had an absolute blast.

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 play some bonus golf, others took the day to explore Queenstown, "the Adventure Capital of the World"

DAY 4 - THIRD ROUND, MILLBROOK (CORONET)

Our golfers returned to Millbrook to enjoy the second of the two spectacular 18-hole courses. Great weather and a solid layout kept the smiles coming! Once again, thanks to the staff at Millbrook for your hospitality.

DAY 5 - FINAL ROUND, QUEENSTOWN GC

Five fun-filled days of world-class golf came to conclusion on the Friday, as our golfers played the picturesque Queenstown Golf Club. The amazing weather all week continued, as the sun came out, treating our golfers to more amazing scenery and some truly spectacular golf.

AWARDS DINNER

Following the day, golfers and their non-golfing partners converged at Brazz Steakhouse for the Presentation Dinner. With some tasty food (and PLENTY of beverages) consumed, the night was a relaxing and fun evening where golfers chatted about their glorious (and not-so-glorious, LOL) golf shots and moments across this memorable week.

2023 Queenstown Golf Week Recap

ARRIVAL AND WELCOME DINNER

Following a short 3-hour flight from Australia, golfers made their way to the new Ramada Queenstown, our home-base for the week. That night, guests enjoyed a hosted Welcome Party at the Queenstown Skyline Stratosfare restaurant, at teh top of the famous Queenstown Gondola. Golfers and their partners were treated to good food and drinks, a relaxed vibe, sweeping 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 - FIRST ROUND, MILLBROOK (CORONET)

The event kicked off at the gorgeous Millbrook Golf Club. A relatively new layout on the 36-hole facility, this club hosts the NZ Open, and it was a real treat for our golfers to experience it in all its glory. The course featured gorgeous scenery all around, which (if you're not careful) can distract you from the golf itself. Overall, it was a challenging and enjoyable golf course. The course staff were friendly and helpful, and our golfers had a great time. Thanks to the course and staff for hosting us and making it a memorable day.

In the competition, David Morriss jumped into the early lead in A-Grade, with a stellar 40 points. Next best were Steve Stoward (35) and Ricardo Walkes (34). In B-Grade, SGA stalwart Thijs van Berkel had a crazy 46 points (wow!) to lead Kevin Biddle (42) and Wayne Meiklejohn (36).

In the Novelty prizes, David "Diesal" Warwick had an absolute DAY OUT, capturing the THREE of the four NTPs. Only Gary Moller kept him from a clean sweep.

NTPs were

Hole 2 – Sandy Allan
Hole 6 – Gary Moller
Hole 13 – Justin Gao
Hole 18 – Jason Pratt

DAY 3 - REST DAY, OPTIONAL GOLF AT THE HILLS

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 a handful of lucky golfers teed-off at the ultra-exclusive The Hills GC (featuring a perfectly-manicured course, surrounded by eclectic works of art), some of our guests took the day to explore Queenstown, "the Adventure Capital of the World"

Overall a great day was had by all. Thanks to our golfers for sharing these great photos with us.

DAY 4 - THIRD ROUND, JACK'S POINT GC

Day 3 of the 2023 Queenstown Golf Week was an ABSOLUTE CRACKER! As was the case in 2022, Jack's Point was a jaw-dropping, eyeball-widening, heart-pumping golf-bag-full-o-joy. With GORGEOUS views at every hole, it is a bucket-list course that had our golfers taking more photos than golf swings. Trust us when we say: PLAY THIS COURSE!

Thanks to the entire team at Jack's Point for hosting us. Everyone had an absolute blast.

In A-Grade, David Morriss continued his solid form, with 37 points on the day. Next best were Matthew Pitt and Steven Clare on 36. in B-Grade, Justin Gao had an impressive 40 points, followed by John Brugman (39) and Joan Swallow Hannah on 35.

NTPs:

Hole 3 – Nicola Dress
Hole 7 – Matthew Pitt
Hole 11 – Gary Moller
Hole 13 – David Morriss

DAY 5 - FINAL ROUND, QUEENSTOWN GC

Five fun-filled days of world-class golf came to conclusion on the Friday, as our golfers played the picturesque Queenstown Golf Club. The amazing weather all week also came to a conclusion, of sorts, as early morning rain and a drop in temperatures saw the beanies, gloves, vests and raingear all make an appearance for the first time in the week. Nevertheless, the sun came out for the final nine, treating our golfers to more amazing scenery and some truly spectacular golf.

In A-Grade, Steve Stoward fired a solid 37 points, followed by David Morriss (36) and Jason Pratt and Gary Moller, both on 34 points. In B-Grade, Thijs van Berkel found a notable book-end to his first-round fireworks, recording the best-of-the-day score of 39 points. He was followed by Frank "Hey Bro" Elisaia and Simon Dobson, both on 36 points.

Day 2 - Queenstown GC

Queenstown Golf Club – NZ's Most Scenic Course

Queenstown Golf Club at Kelvin Heights was recently voted New Zealand’s most scenic golf course and is internationally regarded as one of the World’s most picturesque. It is set in the amphitheatre of the famous Remarkable Mountain Range and surrounded by the pristine waters of Lake Wakatipu. The Course is ‘truly awesome’, offering not only a course that will test your skill but provides a golfing experience you will never forget. Queenstown Golf Club provides a unique challenge with undulating fairways framed by well-established Pine trees. The signature 5th hole playing across the Lake is one of New Zealand’s finest and most photographed.

Day 3 - Jack's Point GC

Jack's Point

Set within a 3,000 acre nature preserve on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, Jack's Point is an 18-hole par-72 golf course bounded by the Remarkables Mountain Range and Lake Wakatipu. It traverses through wetland to the Lake edge encountering steep bluffs, indigenous vegetation and wildlife. It is designed to work with nature, not against it. Fairways are designed with minimal excavation and careful plantings to complement the natural environment, but also to give the golfer a fighting chance.

Day 4 - Rest Day / The Hills

Rest Day or Optional Round at The Hills – Ranked # 6 in NZ

Take this day to explore Queenstown at your leisure, or enjoy an extra round of golf.

The Hills, opened in 2007, is set over 250 acres of former deer farm on the outskirts of Arrowtown in Central Otago. Sir Michael Hill’s Private Course, it is regarded as New Zealand’s most exclusive golf club. Laid out on 250 acres on the outskirts of Arrowtown, The Hills has hosted several NZ PGA and Open tournaments since opening in 2007. Its stunning surroundings and condition of the course make it ideal to host major tournaments.

(Note: this optional round is strictly limited to the first 4 players who reserve and pay their deposit)

Day 5 - Millbrook (Coronet)

Millbrook Resort (Coronet Course) – Ranked #7 in NZ

Set in a natural, alpine amphitheatre, the Millbrook Resort course (Home of the New Zealand Open) is one of the most impressive international golf arenas in the world. Featuring impeccably groomed fairways and greens, demanding hazards and meandering water courses, surrounded by the alpine backdrop of the Remarkables Mountain Range, golf at Millbrook Resort is an exhilarating experience. The 18-hole, par 72 championship course was designed by renowned professional and master golfer, Sir Bob Charles, and features four different tee positions for complete enjoyment at all levels of playing expertise.

Day 6 - Millbrook (Remarkables)

Millbrook Resort (Remarkables Course) – Ranked #10 in NZ

Meandering between tarn-like ponds with spectacular 360-degree vistas of Millbrook, the Remarkables and Arrow nines have combined to form Remarkables 18, providing a truly memorable golfing challenge. Fast and true greens, fine turf quality and a stunning alpine setting combine to provide the golfing experience for which Millbrook is renowned. With the Crown Range and Arrow river valley providing mesmerising backdrops, focusing on the golf can be quite the test.

Presentation Dinner

Presentation and Farewell Dinner - Brazz Steakhouse

Following Golf on Friday, enjoy a presentation ceremony and farewell dinner at Brazz Steakhouse, where you will share laughs, stories of the week and a few beverages with your new golfing friends.

Queenstown turns on the charm for SGA Golfers

Queenstown Turns on the Charm for SGA Golfers

Amazing golf, jaw-dropping scenery and perfect weather greeted SGA Golfers in 2022

SGA's inaugural golf trip to Queenstown, New Zealand, for the 2022 SGA International, proved to be everything (and more) that golfers look for in a golf trip.

With all 5 courses within a quick 20 minutes' transfer from Queenstown, our golfers enjoyed a relaxing and stress-free week. The weather was absolutely MINT, with full sunshine all week, and temperatures in the 19-24-degree range, with only a bit of clouds and wind. In truth, you could not ask for better golf conditions. Or better golf courses. Or a better group of golfers.

2022 Queenstown Golf Week Recap

ARRIVAL AND WELCOME DINNER

Following a short 3-hour flight from Australia, golfers made their way to the new Ramada Queenstown, our home-base for the week. That night, guests enjoyed a hosted Welcome Party at the Pig & Whistle pub, just a few minutes' walk from the hotel. Golfers were treated to good food and drinks, a relaxed vibe, and a jovial atmosphere as they met their fellow golfers (many set to be life-long friends) for the week.

DAY 1 - FIRST ROUND, ARROWTOWN GC

The event kicked off at the gorgeous Arrowtown Golf Club. Simply an amazing location, with plenty of fun had by all. The course features gorgeous scenery all around, which (if you're not careful) can distract you from the golf itself. Overall, it was a challenging and enjoyable golf course. The course staff were friendly and helpful, and our golfers had a great time. Thanks to the course and staff for hosting us and making it a memorable day.

DAY 2 - SECOND ROUND, QUEENSTOWN GC

Day 2 was an absolute corker. Played at the magnificent Queenstown Golf Club, (one of the top-5 most scenic courses in the world) the day featured some stunning scenery, challenging golf and plenty of smiles. Surrounded by Lake Wakatipu, the course has lake views at nearly every turn, with the feature hole running along the lake itself. Wow.

This is a must-play course for any time you visit Queenstown, New Zealand.

Thanks to Andrew and the team (and members) at Queenstown GC for hosting us at your lovely course.

DAY 3 - REST DAY, OPTIONAL GOLF AT THE HILLS

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 a dozen lucky golfers teed-off at the ultra-exclusive The Hills GC (featuring a perfectly-manicured course, surrounded by eclectic works of art), some of our guests took the day to explore. Some visited a variety of amazing wineries; others took on a more adrenaline-packed adventure on the Skippers Canyon Jet Boats. Still others took the scenic Skyline Queenstown Gondola to enjoy the views (while one intrepid golfer even HIKED to the top of the mountain!). It's no wonder why Queenstown is named "the Adventure Capital of the World"

Overall a great day was had by all. Thanks to our golfers for sharing these great photos with us.

DAY 4 - THIRD ROUND, JACK'S POINT GC

Day 3 of the 2022 SGA International - NZ was an ABSOLUTE CRACKER! Jacks Point was a jaw-dropping, eyeball-widening, heart-pumping golf-bag-full-o-joy. There is a reason that our Media Manager rates this course as his #1 on the planet, and it's hard to argue. With GORGEOUS views at EVERY HOLE, it is a bucket-list course that had our golfers taking more photos than golf swings. Trust us when we say: PLAY THIS COURSE!

Thanks to Luke and the entire team at Jack's Point for hosting us. Everyone had an absolute blast.

DAY 5 - FINAL ROUND, MILLBROOK GC

Five fun-filled days of world-class golf came to a fitting conclusion on Friday, as our golfers played the AMAZING Millbrook Resort (Coronet course). A relatively new layout on the 36-hole facility, this club hosts the NZ Open, and it was a real treat for our golfers to experience it in all its glory.

EVENT RESULTS

Of course, this week was about more than just enjoyable golf. There was also a tournament going on!

When the 4-round scores were tallied, checked and re-checked, we had a TIE at the top of A-grade, with both Bill Marriott and Anthony Harwood locked-in on 134 total stableford points. On countback, Anthony took the bikkies, courtesy of his final round 33, just edging Bill on 32. SGA stalwart Drew Hallam finished 2 shots back on 132, capturing the final podium spot.
In B-Grade, it was also a close race, with the lead shifting over the four days. In the end, Cheryl Kelly captured the trophy, with a total of 136 points (the highest of all golfers throughout the week!). One shot back, capturing second, was Bill Hogg, with “Happy, Not Happy, Bro” Frank Elisaia taking third on 131. ( See Full scores below.)

AWARDS DINNER

Following the day, golfers and their non-golfing partners converged at the Pig & Whistle Historic Pub for the Presentation Dinner. With some tasty food (and PLENTY of beverages) consumed, the night was a relaxing and fun evening where golfers chatted about their glorious (and not-so-glorious, LOL) golf shots and moments across this memorable week.
