Melinee Udom

Top 50 player in the U.S. for the class of 2027

"Coach Kumiko has been an absolute game-changer for my daughter, Melinee. Over the past year, Kumiko has been there every step of the way—whether through text, calls, in-person sessions, or on-course coaching. Her guidance has played a crucial role in Melinee’s success, not just on the golf course but also in the classroom.

Thanks to Kumiko’s coaching, Melinee is now ranked among the top 50 players in the U.S. for the class of 2027. The improvement in her composure and shot selection is undeniable. She plays with confidence, stays relaxed under pressure, and trusts her game like never before. Win or lose, Kumiko is always there with invaluable advice and support.

I never realized how important a mental coach was until we found Kumiko. Now, I can’t imagine this journey without her. I highly recommend her to golfers at any level—whether you’re a recreational player or striving for the professional ranks. Kumiko’s impact goes beyond golf; she helps athletes unlock their full potential."

 "My daughter, Passion has traveled around the world such as USKids World Championship, IMG Junior World, FCG, Callaway World, and many more in Asia.

I have tried several mental coaches but none could relate to what is going on in my 13-year-old competitive golfer daughter.

Kumiko is my best finding of a golf mental coach. After the 2nd session, I could see a lot of changes in my daughter. She was more confident in her tournaments and is able to go through difficult situations. Kumiko is ever so patient. Whenever I tell her what I observed during the game, she could immediately tell me what she plans to do and it is golf related, unlike other mental coaches who dont really understand what is going on from a competitive golfer and as a parent point of view. Kumiko could totally relate to everything that I was trying to tell her and what my daughter was experiencing. It is so important to find a Golf Mental Coach and not just any sports mental coach. They maybe mental coaches too but they can't understand what is going on in Golf.

My daughter is always looking forward to sessions with Kumiko.

Thank you, Kumiko for being such a gem to my athlete!"

After my highest round, I decided to work more on my mental game, since I felt the swing and golf talent was there and that I could do so much better with guidance. After only two great sessions with Kumiko, I started to have better performance and I instantly got low results as I knew I could. She helped me to control my overthinking in the course and, Kumiko taught me how to control my thoughts from the tee box until the end of the hole. She didn’t just tell me to think “shot by shot” as everyone says, instead, Kumiko made me analyze what was I thinking before every shot, she helped me to start thinking how I was going to make a birdie in every tee box that I approached. I not only started to consistently shoot low scores, but I also finish my college career by winning the National Championship, which wouldn’t have been possible if I didn’t meet Kumiko.

I’m very grateful for all that she has taught me, and I’m excited about the continuous improvement of my game with the help of Kumiko."
