Get advice to help you read putts - Brief Article

Tom Watson

I believe two heads are better than one when reading putts. When Jack Nicklaus and I partnered to win the Hyundai Team Matches last winter, we often discussed the line of putts.

Speed is the key to the line

About the only time Jack and I disagreed about a putt was on the 10th hole of our final match against Bruce Fleisher and David Graham. Jack had about a 10-foot putt. He saw less break in it than I did, but I persisted. He played more break and made it.

If I'm not sure of the line, I like to discuss it with my partner or, in regular tournaments, with my caddie, Bruce Edwards. Bruce knows how hard I tend to hit putts, and judging the speed is primary when you read a putt. Remember that the ball will break more on fast greens.

If your partner is familiar with your putting style, solicit nput when you're uncertain about the line--especially if your partner is a better putter than you are.
