PHD swings to victory at UnLtd: Open

AUCKLAND, Today: PHD clinched the win at the second annual UnLtd: Open golf tournament in Auckland! Sponsored by oOh!media, the event saw over 60 players gather at Akarana Golf Club for a day of fun and fundraising.

Golfers enjoyed a mix of surprises, competitions, and sponsor activations across the 18-hole course, from drive-through drink tastings to spin & win challenges and Polaroid picture spots.

The event raised funds for UnLtd Aotearoa’s work with charities supporting at-risk youth, including the Graeme Dingle Foundation. This inspiring cause took centre stage, with the foundation sharing its mission to empower young people with essential life skills.

Nick Vile, General Manager NZ at oOh!media, remarked, “We’re proud to support UnLtd and sponsor the Open. It was a stunner of a day supporting the important work UnLtd do to help charities grow while catching up with the industry over some healthy competition!”

“There were some great golfers on the course so taking home the trophy is definitely an un-fore-gettable experience. We will be back next year to defend it!”
