Watching Jordan Speith made me a better putter
I had been struggling for a while with my putting. While i was able to read my putts pretty well i was leaving them short most of the time. After watching Jordan Speith master the greens at Augusta i decided to try his 'look at the hole' technique.
Now with my short putts i look at the hole while striking the ball. My days of leaving the ball short seem to have gone. Cheers Jordan!
