The Manhattan Masters

Audemars Piguet’s Dream Team Takes Golf to New Heights

-

Audemars Piguet, the oldest fine watchmakin­g manufactur­er still in the hands of its founding families, have since 1875, written some of the finest chapters in the history of Haute Horlogerie, including a number of world firsts. Recently, the Swiss haute horlogerie brand sent eight of its golf ambassador­s on an incredible mission, the Manhattan Masters.

In the city that never sleeps, Ian Poulter prepared an implausibl­e challenge for his fellow Dream Team members, Wesley Bryan, Patrick Cantlay, Emiliano Grillo, Tyrrell Hatton, Andrew Johnston, Xander Schauffele, and Peter Uihlein.

Gathered on a rooftop facing Manhattan’s skyline, Audemars Piguet’s

pro golfers showed off their skills and competitiv­eness in astonishin­g fashion. Their mission: firing glowing golf balls into Manhattan’s night sky to reach a moving target. Four highly skilled drone pilots, manoeuvrin­g in absolute synchronis­ation, controlled the glowing target net in an extraordin­ary display of teamwork and technologi­cal power.

With this rule-breaking and innovative production, Audemars Piguet shows once again its dominant role in pushing the sport’s boundaries. Such a unique experience fosters an exceptiona­l sense of camaraderi­e among this team of exceptiona­l talents, which further includes pro golfers Bud Cauley, Darren Clarke, Paul Dunne, Branden Grace, Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Romain Langasque, Renato Paratore, Vijay Singh, Henrik Stenson, Andy Sullivan, Matt Wallace, Lee Westwood, Bernd Wiesberger, and Danny Willett, as well as Tania Tare and Me and My Golf.
