19 Holes With ... Clint Newton

The Jack Newton Celebrity Classic is a three-day golf tournament come Christmas party which for 45 years has raised millions for the late and great Jack Newton’s twin passions, diabetes research and junior golf. Following the man’s passing in 2022, the legacy is being carried forward by his son, Clint, among others in the Newton family. And Clint has a few tales to tell – and a legacy to create – of his own, as Matt Cleary found over 18 holes and a couple of beers at Shortees Golf complex in Sydney’s Terrey Hills.
