Hello everyone! Sarah Chen here, your instruction editor for The Daily Duffer. Today, we’re diving into a fascinating aspect of putting technology that’s gaining serious traction: zero-torque putters.

Hello, Daily Duffer readers! As your golf instruction editor, I’m thrilled to talk about a topic that deeply impacts every golfer, from tour professionals to weekend warriors: the mental game under pressure. This week, we’re all buzzing about the return of the Skins Game, an event that, as Brendon Elliott astutely points out, “was a masterclass in pressure golf.” For those of us who grew up watching it, the Skins Game wasn’t just entertainment; it was a front-row seat to some of golf’s most intense, high-stakes moments.

As a golf instruction editor for The Daily Duffer, I’m always on the lookout for anything that can genuinely help golfers improve their game.
