If you’ve been struggling with your putting, it might be time to take a tip from Scottie Scheffler. This week, Darren deMaille of QuickFixGolf.com shares a simple, powerful habit that’s helping Scheffler roll in putts with confidence (as seen in his recent PGA Championship!), and how you can adopt it too.

Scottie Scheffler’s Sneaky Putting Habit

Scheffler’s secret? He holds his finish. That’s it! After the putt is struck, he stays down and maintains his posture, locking in the feel of the stroke instead of popping up to watch the ball.

Why Holding Your Finish Improves Feel

By holding your finish for about eight seconds, you give your body time to register the motion and build better energy control. Darren calls it “recapturing the feel of the putt”—and it’s a drill that’s as simple as it is effective.

So next time you’re on the practice green, resist the urge to peek. Hold your finish. Listen for the ball to drop. And watch your touch and distance control start to improve.

Watch the full tip and try it out next round!
