ted putt

[Yoda]

Ted's 15-minute lecture focused on putting mechanics and tactics. The focus was on how to read a certain putt -- a tough left-to-right breaker that was much closer to 15 feet than the 9 feet Ted mentioned in his prior post. The lecture completed, everybody begin to break away. For me though, the much-discussed putt begged for resolution. My exact words stopped the departing crowd in their tracks:

"I'd like to see him make that putt."

The gallery gathered; the chatter ceased; and the green became as quiet as the 18th on a Masters Sunday.

And then Ted calmly rolled it in.

Priceless.
