August 21, 2008

August 21, 2008, Greencastle, Ind. - "The pressure wasn't intense, but it was present and Jessica Schneider knew, if she hit the putt, she would set the bar high," begins a story in the Evening Sun of Hanover, Pennsylvania, on the 2004 DePauw University gradute. "Schneider did just that, nailing the 25-footer with ease. Afterward, she watched the next six competitors miss, which enabled the 25-year old Duramed FUTURES Tour member to win the Yes! Golf One Grand Putting Challenge on Wednesday at The Links At Gettysburg. Schneider, an Elgin, Ill., resident who will turn 26 Friday, won $1,000," reports Cory Mull.
