There is a golf ball that sits in a glass cabinet in the museum of the United States Golf Association at Liberty Corner in New Jersey, donated by Jeremy Bittner. This ball could be seen as an emblem of a remarkable year for Bittner in 2022, the amputee golfer used it to record the first hole-in-one in the inaugural US Adaptive Open, made at Pinehurst Number 6.
This was just one shot in a blaze of fine shots. The man from Pittsburgh climbed from 170th place in the World Ranking for Golfers with Disability to number 11, and qualified to play on the G4D Tour this January.
Jeremy lost his lower left leg in a lawnmower accident when he was four years old. Despite this difficult start in life, encouraged by his father and always included by his young friends, he emerged as a sporty and energetic youngster. Dad got him into golf: in his early teens he joined the high school golf team and he has never looked back.
Enjoy listening to Jeremy’s unique story today.
