The 104th<\/sup> New Zealand Open presented by Sky Sport tees off at Millbrook Resort in Queenstown between 27 February and 2 March 2025.<\/p>\n A fantastic ambassador for both Queenstown and the New Zealand Open, Jones\u2019 2023 victory in Queenstown came after he survived the cut on the number, and then played \u201cthe two best shots of my life\u201d to make crucial birdies on the final few holes helping him claim the title.<\/p>\n Speaking about the New Zealand Open Jones says he \u201cwouldn\u2019t miss it for anything\u201d and is looking to add his name to the Brodie Breeze trophy once again.<\/p>\n \u00a0\u201cThe New Zealand Open is the first event I add to my schedule every year. It\u2019s a fabulous event and not only myself, but every one of the players can\u2019t wait to be part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0\u201cNot only is it the best event of the year in my opinion, but the location and hospitality are something we don\u2019t experience anywhere else in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n Jones, who turns 50 on March 3, the day after the final round at the New Zealand Open next year, believes the experience and pressure from the PGA Tour Champions Q-School has helped put him in great shape, both physically and mentally for returning to Queenstown.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Q-School process is quite tough and really tests your all-round game. Having had a few injuries this year, it\u2019s been great to see my fitness and mentality back up to the level I want them to be at. Hopefully, these experiences will help me push on at Millbrook.\u201d<\/p>\n
