This thread reminds me of the final round of the recent US Open. Early in the round most of the players appeared to not accelerate the putter through impact. I've seen it so often lately - also from winners - that I was starting to believe this was the only way on such lightnening fast greens.

There was one exeption though - Michael Campbell was putting with a smooth and determent acceleration all day long.

Last saturday I was in a flight with a gentleman with putting yips. I have never seen it so clearly before. His right hand had spasms right before impact. I don't think he holed anything in the region 2-5 feet all the round. It was hartbreaking to watch. I really felt sorry for the guy.

He did sink a long one though. The yips only occured on short putts.
