DENVER, Colorado – The U.S. Open has a history of iconic moments. Many of those moments have decided the winner in golf’s ultimate test with the sinking of memory searing, nerves of steel putts, shout out loud putts. From Jack Nicklaus to Tiger Woods to John Rahm.
So, it was fitting that just outside Steel City, the 2025 U.S. Open champion sank a 64-ft, five-inch putt on the 18th green at Oakmont Country Club during the final round yesterday to claim his first major championship and outlast the chasers in a chaotic and wild, weather delayed finish.
The 2025 U.S. Open champion made four birdies on the back nine sinking a 40-footer at No. 12 and a 22-ft putt on the 14th green that gave him the outright lead coming down the stretch.
What has been the best kept secret on the PGA TOUR and key to this major champion’s distance control and perfect tempo with his putting? The Flex Putter trainer.
Flex Putter’s patented carbon fiber flexible shaft is designed to visibly reflect the quality of each putting stroke. When practicing, golfers can immediately see how well they’re keeping the shaft straight which is essential for a smooth, controlled stroke. This immediate feedback loop accelerates the training and engraining process.
“The Flex putter trainer really helps my tempo which then helps me control the face” said the 2025 U.S. Open champion and winner of the 2022 Valero Texas Open. “If I can make putts with this shaft, I can make putts with a shaft that doesn’t flex.”
When practicing with the Flex putter training, it is recommended that golfers begin with 30 ft putts to develop the feeling of a long stroke, the release of the flexible shaft and distance control. Timing and rhythm are developed through sound awareness with the soft Flex putter head. A flush hit not only feels right but sounds right. When you make solid contact, golfers hear a crisp, clear sound that reinforces muscle memory. The noise association provides simple and effective feedback that tells golfers if they’ve made a good or bad stroke.
“The beauty of the Flex Putter is that you will instantly feel if the stroke is pure or a miss-hit,” said owner and inventor of Flex Putter, Tony Aguilar. “It helps golfers from beginners to pros learn to feel the perfect stroke.”
The signature blue shaft putter conforms to the Rules of Golf and provides training with a real putter that you can take to the course. That’s why more than 30 PGA, LPGA and Champions Tour players including major champions train with Flex Putters. The trainer helps control their putter face, tempo and release.
“In all my years, this is the best and only trainer I’ve ever endorsed,” said two-time major champion, Ryder Cup player and Captain, and 25-time PGA TOUR winner, Dave Stockton. “If you want to learn how to putt and roll the ball perfectly, the Flex Putter should be in your bag.”
Beginners to pros can benefit from the Flex putter trainer by achieving game-improving, perfect putting quickly and consistently, and learn to raise their game to the highest level just like a U.S. Open champion.
Flex Putters recently launched its new white shafter putter, the Gamer. Both models – the Flex Trainer and Flex Gamer – come in a blade and a mallet.
