How to use putter in a sentence?

1. Jim Herman:

   He motivates me and puts me in a good spot, i don't know what it is about him, but he gets me going in the right direction with golf. I took his advice and put a new putter in play.

2. Martin Kaymer:

   It’s very important to take care of the first six and seven holes because you can score there, you need to take advantage of the par fives and that’s very important. If the putter is warm enough then I might have a chance.

3. Jeff Hall:

   The grounding of the putter near the ball and the ball's immediate movement after the club had been grounded, we put Dustin on notice, we just wanted him to realize that we were concerned and we wanted to make him aware of that so that he could strategically make decisions that he needed to make for the balance of the round.

4. American Paula Creamer:

   My putter was hot and I gave myself some really good looks for par, even thought I had to save them, it was a crazy back nine, that's for sure.

5. David Cannon/Getty Images:

   Just disappointment I guess, i had a great opportunity to add to that major tally, and I did n’t quite get it done. Did n’t feel like I did many things wrong. The putter just sort of went cold on me there, pretty much throughout the round. I did what I wanted to do. I played a really controlled round of golf. I did n’t take advantage of some of the holes I had been taking advantage of this week.
