US EditionAmari Avery Has to Borrow a Friend's Clubs and Still Manages to Make Cut in the U.S. Women's Open
- Amari Avery, a 20-year-old pro golfer from California, played the second round of the U.S. Women's Open at Erin Hills using borrowed clubs after an early morning break-in attempt at her Airbnb in Milwaukee on Friday.
- The break-in and a mix-up led to Avery's boyfriend accidentally flying to Phoenix with her golf bag, forcing her to urgently find replacement clubs from former USC teammate Gabi Ruffels before her tee time.
- Despite the disruption, Avery posted a one-over 73 with the borrowed clubs, which was enough to make the cut, while she and her family moved to a hotel for safety after police responded to the break-in attempt.
- Avery described the situation as "scary" and credited Ruffels for lending her clubs, saying, "I can’t thank her enough" and felt Gabi's clubs were "honestly pretty good" during the round.
- Avery eventually received her own clubs from Aurilia's mother and completed the third round with a 76, illustrating her resilience amid adversity and the strong support from her inner circle.
