Wynn Resorts challenge golfers to take on world’s highest hole-in-one

High end hotel operator Wynn Resorts teed up a stunt unlike any other  – challenging pro golfers to take on the World’s Highest Hole-in-One.

The gold challenge took place 22 storeys above the live construction site for the new Wynn Al Marjan Island with a million-dirham prize on the line.

The sky high stunt, organised by agency The Romans, brought together pro golfers Padraig Harrington, Thorbjørn Olesen and Ryan Fox all vying to land the shot and secure a prize benefiting Heroes of Hope, a UAE-based nonprofit.

While the trio were unable to make the ace, Wynn Resorts committed to donate the money to the charity.

Joe Lipscombe, Partner at The Romans, said, “We have two years to bring the Wynn story to life in the region and that won’t happen through construction updates. Wynn is more than bricks and mortar; it’s a cultural epicenter where sports, art, music, and entertainment collide to create unreal experiences.”
