Clint Newton Parents

Clint Newton is the son of Jackie and Australian professional golfer Jack Newton. Jack passed away on 15 April 2022, at the age 72. Clint paid tribute to his late dad on Instagram. He wrote: “In my eyes, Dad was the biggest, fiercest, and most courageous lion. He was my king of the jungle. He was a fearless leader, and chose to live life on his terms, his way – authentic, unrelenting, and selfless.”

“When the challenge of walking through the hottest of fires (hell even) was thrown down, he willingly accepted the challenge. In his mind, there was no other option. He was uncompromising and frustratingly stubborn, but that Aussie grit meant, I never once heard him complain and most importantly, he never gave up. He was only ever prepared to allow his mind to think about what he did have, what he will get done, what he will contribute, “no time for any of that other bullshit, Clint”, he would often say.

“Dad was an Australian icon. He inspired more than I will ever know, leaving a lasting legacy that will live on through countless stories and immovable foundations that he built; however, before all those achievements and impressions, put simply, he was my Dad, and he was everything I needed him to be; loyal, reliable, tough, resilient and loving.

“The hole in my heart is big, and while he may be gone from this world, I will never forget what he would regularly say to me, “Son, you only have one job in life, leave the world better than you found it,” and he undeniably did that.

“I will always cherish the memories of our times together, but most importantly, I will never forget how he made me feel; safe and loved.

“To our Mum, Dad’s lioness. No Jack Newton or family legacy exists without you. You were charged with the responsibility and relentless task of supporting, loving, and caring for Dad. The final holes of Dad’s last round her tough, but you proved love conquers all. Thank you.

“Thank you everyone for your messages, posts, love, support, and compassion; our family are truly grateful. To all of his friends and supporters, please, don’t look back with sadness, look forward with a smile because Dad’s life is one to celebrate; and yes, in true Jack Newton style, we will celebrate.”
