As we were reading about this year’s Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, we found ourselves missing the smooth baritone voice of Sir Nick Faldo — England’s own golfing statesman and one of the game’s great storytellers.
That bit of nostalgia sent us down a rabbit hole, where we uncovered this terrific instructional video featuring Sir Nick sharing his secrets for holing those short, knee-knocking putts that can make or break a round.
Our thanks to Sir Nick for passing along a few Hall of Fame putting tips. After all, sinking pressure-packed putts was a specialty of his during a remarkable career that included three Open Championship titles. Watching him explain the art of putting is a reminder that some lessons never go out of style.
