Yealimi Noh Tied First Round U.S. Women's Open with Broomstick Putter
Yealimi Noh has been making headlines at the U.S. Women's Open, where she tied for the lead after the first round with a 4-under 68, aided by her switch to a L.A.B. Golf broomstick putter that helped her overcome the yips. The 23-year-old American credited the putter and her coach for this turnaround, noting significant improvement in her putting statistics and overall confidence, culminating in her first LPGA win earlier this year at the Founders Cup. Despite her success, some golf fans have raised concerns about whether Noh is anchoring her putter, a practice banned by the Rules of Golf since 2016, though she has not been penalized and officials appear to deem her play legal. Noh's performance and story are inspiring a new generation of young golfers, particularly girls, as the U.S. Women's Open continues to grow youth interest in the sport. Her putting success and fearless play at Erin Hills have drawn attention, with many noting her ability to handle challenging greens and her eagerness to share her experience with others. The use of the broomstick putter is becoming increasingly popular among female golfers, showcasing a shift in putting techniques on the LPGA Tour.
