Watched a few minutes of the Jo'burg Open today. Ernie Els is now putting left hand below right, after being forced to give up the anchored long putter by the rule changes. While I was watching he missed 2 par putts and one was an absolute tiddler! New method may not be working that well, because he still looks a bit twitchy!
 
He has looked a bit twitchy with a conventional putter for some time now. Commentators on sky were highlighting this early on last year, shame.
 
He's missed short ones for a while. Definitely struggling at the moment

That's the problem with having the yips. You miss most of the shortish putts that you think you should really make! Less of a problem for longer putts, as there is less expectation that you should make them! :(
