Champion the Challenges’ Golf4Life event at Los Lagos Golf Course included a lunch with an inspiring talk by 17-year-old stroke survivor Mariah Fisher.
Deb Shaw was not a big golf player before she had three strokes between 2016 and 2019. But putting in virtual reality and later on a real course became a big part of her recovery, especially because it allowed her to get outdoors during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Depending on their preference, players could practice driving, participate in a putting challenge or a take on a 3-hole course. Ten PGA club pros were on hand, along with therapists, to help them hit the ball — even using Power2Golf’s “swingless” club, which is piston-driven and with the push of a button can drive a ball from 50 to more than 200 yards.
More than 250 stroke survivors and their caregivers came out to the Golf4Life event held at Los Lagos Golf Course in San Jose on Wednesday, Sept. 13, 2023. It included a 3-hole game, a putting challenge, a resource fair and lunch.
