tap-in
Short, simple putt
A tap-in is an easy, close-range goal in soccer or hockey—one requiring only a simple tap to put the ball or puck into the net: He was perfectly positioned for the tap-in.
In golf, a tap-in is a putt so short it's virtually unmissable.
Both uses suggest minimal effort or skill required.
