Tom Kite switched to the long putter last September and the move has paid dividends. Kite was 23rd in putting last year, but this season he has jumped all the way to tied for fourth. He led the field last week at the Boeing Classic needing only 26 putts per day en route to victory.

Good to see he's still improving his game. It shows he still wants to win. That's great!

I agree with Helen.

Those long putters should have never seen the light of day on tour.

Another reason Finchem needs to go.

Please God.
