You try to figure out the best way to throw the shot put, or the perfect way to long jump, and you don't ever get it. You just chip away, chip away, chip away as time goes on.

The game itself, I think, plays into the strength of my game, which has always been tee to green, hitting the ball consistently in play and managing my game. Putting has always been the one thing that's been a bit more erratic.

Right before I start the putter back, I think about making solid contact. This brings your attention to the back of the ball and helps keep your head still at impact, which is a must. Many amateurs take a peek down the line too soon, and that can cause all sorts of mis-hits.

I'm a good putter. Like good shooters, just keep shooting. I'm just going to keep putting, and they're going to start going in.

Before you take your address, while you're still reading the putt, imagine the ball tracking on the line you've chosen and falling into the cup. If you don't believe you can make every putt, why bother trying?

It's just a matter of hitting the ball where I want to hit it and hopefully making some putts.

Throwing a ball is not natural, whether it's overhand or underhand.

A particular shot or way of moving the ball can be a player's personal signature, but efficiency of performance is what wins the game for the team.

Among golfers the putter is usually known as the payoff club and how right that is! Putting is in fact a game in itself.

You don't just throw the ball - you propel it.
