CHARLESTON, S.C. (Reuters) - Less than two months after finishing first and second at the inaugural Augusta National Women's Amateur, American Jennifer Kupcho and Mexico's Maria Fassi make their professional debuts at the U.S. Women's Open starting on Thursday.

Kupcho introduced herself to the biggest women's golf television audience of the year with her Augusta win, while Fassi also left the amateur game with a bang, winning the American collegiate (NCAA) individual championship last week.
