Kauri Cliffs (Matauri Bay, New Zealand)—David Harman, 2000

Ohio-born David Harman had worked in the golf industry for decades before designing the course he’ll forever be known for. Harman founded a golf construction company in 1980 and worked on courses for Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Pete Dye, and Tom Fazio. In 1996, he set up his own design firm and built a few highly thought of courses in Florida. His big opportunity, though, came when hedge fund billionaire Julian Robertson gave him the chance to design a course on cliffs, 450 feet above the Pacific Ocean on New Zealand’s coastline, 150 miles north of Auckland. The course opened in 2000, and Harman’s design star was set to rise. Tragically, however, he died just four years later at the age of 51.

Column: Guy Gaudreau and his family dried their eyes, sang the anthem and then watched Johnny Hockey’s kids take the ice for the team picture.

“He grew up with all these guys. He’s probably here with them right now in spirit, right?”
