Though he was a strong swimmer and renowned surfer, golf was Brown’s premier sport. In 1924 Brown set a course record at the Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland. Three years later, he set the record at Pebble Beach Golf Links. And between 1920 and 1930, Brown reigned as Amateur Champion in Hawai`i, Japan, and California. In 1936, Brown paid $6,000 to purchase a small cottage and land at Kalahuipua`a, which he would later sell to Mauna Lani Resort in 1972 with a vision to create “an international resort where people could come together to relax and play golf in a atmosphere of total harmony.”
