I can't putt. The reasons are infinite. When lining up

I can’t putt. The reasons are infinite. When lining up a putt, I can’t remember if the ball always breaks to the ocean or to the valley or away from Pinnacle Peak. And because I took up the game in Minnesota, in what is often called Middle America, I also grew up asking, ‘To which ocean does it break?’
Steve Rushin
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?
Ernie Els
I was from North Carolina, so as a youngster all of my mind games about golf were always, ‘If I make this I win The Masters, if I hole this par putt I win The Masters.’ So it was a great thrill to play there.
Raymond Floyd
I can sit here and hit all the balls and chip and putt all day long, but if you’re not playing competitive golf… there’s nothing better than competitive golf.
John Daly
I spent hours as a kid on the putting green of the local golf course imagining I was sinking a putt to win the Masters.
Mike Weir
And I think before I was so focused on speed or I was so focused on trying to hit this great putt that I just wasn’t reacting to what I was doing. I react when I hit an iron shot, why can’t I do that when I’m over the putter?
Collin Morikawa
I can’t dwell on the past, that I haven’t won a lot, but anytime I didn’t play good was mainly because I didn’t putt very good.
John Daly
These guys that take a shower, grab a cup of coffee, and go straight to the tee? That’s not the way to do it. When you warm up, hit 20 to 25 wedges, a few middle irons, and 10 to 15 3-woods and drivers. If you’re going to putt, give yourself 10 minutes.
Zach Johnson
If ever I needed an eight foot putt, and everything I owned depended on it, I would want Arnold Palmer to putt for me.
Bobby Jones
I don’t putt face-on exclusively, but in the back on my mind I’m haunted by the notion that I’m sure it’s the best way to putt.
Gary McCord
If you drink don’t drive. Don’t even putt.
Dean Martin
I read the greens in Spanish, but putt in English.
Chi Chi Rodriguez
Contours on the second half of a long putt have more impact on how the ball rolls because it’s going slower. Adjust your speed if that last part is playing uphill or downhill. Don’t get fooled by an early slope or break.
Ernie Els
How about a little noise. How do you expect a man to putt?
Babe Ruth
I putt like I did when I was a kid. When you’re a kid, you’re not scared of anything.
Arnold Palmer
As we all know, the concept of the gimme putt is anathema to the PGA Tour.
Jim Nantz
Even when I finished third at the U.S. Open a few weeks back, I didn’t putt very well, nor in the last round of last year’s Masters when Mickelson won, nor last year’s Open at Turnberry, where I came second.
Lee Westwood
Gimme: an agreement between two losers who can’t putt.
Jim Bishop
For the average player, most three-putts happen because of a poorly judged first putt from long range.
Ernie Els
I always could putt. Part of my makeup, I always could putt.
Tom Watson
I didn’t learn how to swing a golf club until late in my career. And even though I won all those tournaments, I still struggled with consistency, and I relied on my strengths, which were hitting the ball long and high, and I could chip and putt with the best of ’em.
Tom Watson
There are so many aspects of the game that you can work on – you can drive it father, you can drive it straighter, you can hit your irons higher and more consistently, you can get better with your wedges, and you can always putt better. There’s never an end to that striving to get better in golf.
