How Do I Improve My Putting?
My putting is awful. Is there some technique or exercise I can use to stop me three putting and bring down my golf score?

There are a number of simple things that will help:
Check your grip - make sure you hold the putter not crossing the back fingers but instead placing the index finger over the bottom hand.
Ball alignment - align the ball with the front foot in the stance to allow the ball to be rolled by the putter instead of hit.
Head position - make sure your eyes are right above the ball so you can look from ball to target line
Finish position - keep your shoulders closed, in a pivot movement with your hips
Speed over accuracy - remember the speed of the ball is more important than the line, a good length puts you closer to the hole that an accurate shot that flies over the hole and ends up way past.
