Bremer Stuns Co-Medalist Coffman in Round of 64 at Brae Burn C.C.

What’s the old golf adage, the ball doesn’t know your age – or when it comes to match play your seeding. Raegan Bremer entered the knockout portion of the 37th U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur Championship at historic Brae Burn Country Club, in West Newton, Mass., on Monday 15 strokes worse than her opponent, co-medalist and No. 2 seed Sabrina Coffman.

But in match play, everyone starts each day at Ground Zero and past performances are gone with yesterday’s news. Bremer, the No. 63 seed who posted 18-over 162 during stroke play, took out the 26-year-old Coffman from Toledo, Ohio, 2 and 1, in recording the biggest Round-of-64 upset.

Club Champion Putter Fitting Review - Warrensville Heights Ohio Studio

It's the simplest and slowest swing we make in golf.  The distance between starting point and destination is the shortest of any shot we take.  Yet put a putter in someone's hands and too often we become something like Mayhem from the Allstate commercials.  That's where a putter fitting at Club Champion comes into play.

Using a putter that doesn't fit your swing creates a laundry list of problems.  Your ball skids, your ball rolls off line, your ball comes up short or blows past the hole.  But get fit for a putter at Club Champion that works for you and not against you?  All of a sudden you're Daniel-San catching flies with chopsticks on the greens.
