straight putt
No break needed
A straight putt in golf is one that travels directly toward the hole without curving left or right.
Unlike putts on sloped greens that break to one side, a straight putt requires only controlling distance and aim: It's a straight putt, about six feet.
Golfers consider these easier to read but not necessarily easier to make.
