What Made 2019's Best Putting Stand Out
Looking back at a season of putting is about more than who holed the most long ones. The players who stood out in 2019 tended to share a handful of habits that any club golfer in Phnom Penh can study and borrow, whether they play on a full course outside the city or practise on a small putting green between work and family commitments.
Speed control before line
Coaches widely agree that distance control matters more than reading the perfect line. A putt struck at the right pace has a wider effective target and leaves a short, comfortable second putt when it misses. Many strong putters practise lag drills from long range, trying to stop the ball within a short circle around the hole rather than aiming only to sink it.
A repeatable routine
Consistent players usually follow the same pre-putt routine every time: read the green from behind the ball, take one or two practice strokes that match the length of the putt, set up, and go. That consistency reduces tension under pressure, which is often what separates a good round from a frustrating one in a club competition.
Reading local greens
Conditions in Cambodia bring their own challenges. Heat, humidity and seasonal rain affect how fast greens run and how grass grain behaves through the day. Morning greens can feel quite different from afternoon ones, so it pays to spend a few minutes on the practice green before teeing off and to watch how playing partners' putts break.
Practice that transfers
Short, focused sessions tend to beat long, aimless ones. Useful options include:
- Gate drills, using two tees just wider than the putter head to train a square strike.
- Circle drills from about a metre, building confidence on the putts that matter most.
- Ladder drills at increasing distances to sharpen feel for pace.
Getting involved locally
Golf groups, social leagues and expatriate sports clubs are a good way to find practice partners and friendly competitions. Browse our association directory to find sports and social organisations, and check the events page for community gatherings. Always confirm fixtures and membership details directly with each club before attending.
