“90 percent of putts that are short don't go in”
Yogi Berra
“There is no tragedy in missing a putt, no matter how short. All have erred in this respect.”
Walter Hagen
“A putt cannot go in the hole if it's short. I'd rather face a four-footer coming back than leave the ball on the front lip.”
Tom Watson
“I missed some short putts, making it hard for me to find a good rhythm. I could have moved up the standings even higher and I feel my confidence level got up from last week.”
Ai Miyazato
“I hit the ball out there far enough to compete, but you've got to putt, ... I've missed so many short putts. That was always the strength of my game. It kills any kind of momentum you might have. I never used to miss any short birdie putts. I always converted the ones I should have made. I don't do that any more. It wears on you mentally.”
John Huston
“I played solid. I didn't make any huge mistakes. I just missed some short putts. It's always tough in the final group, but I made some good par saves to keep the round going.”
Chad Collins
“I left my putts short on the ninth, 10th and 11th but the birdie on the 14th gave me something good to sleep on,”
Graeme McDowell
