Bernhard Langer knows an awful lot about putting. What's more, he knows a lot about awful putting - and how it can be cured. He had to search and struggle for successful technique over a nightmare period when the "yips" threatened to destroy him in front of millions of viewers. He has now got putting down to a fine art, and having reached the top of order or merit and recorded the best putting stroke average, the success he enjoys today is a testimony to the young man's courage and intelligence. This book, co-written with Britain's own noted teacher Vivien Saunders, is as clear and encouraging as any yet published about golf. It takes a magnifying glass to the business of getting the ball into the hole, and shows how to do it in a mechanical and consistent manner, whatever the tension or pressure, the slickness or the slopes.
