The golf course at Jack’s Point on the outskirts of Queenstown, New Zealand, is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful settings in the world. Towering mountains, challenging hills, and spectacular views make a game here a memorable occasion. The city can be glimpsed across the bay.
In the middle of the course, far from the clubhouse and without fanfare, stands this sculpture of a young golfer about to hit his tee shot. He looks determined and posed for success.
“Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and maddening – and it is without a doubt the greatest game mankind has ever invented.” ~ Arnold Palmer
