Should you try one-handed putting? It certainly worked for the newest PGA Tour winner

Adam Schenk explained his unusual method and provided a helpful message to all golfers.

Arnold Palmer famously told golfers to, "Swing your swing." Adam Schenk has now essentially extended that to "Putt your putt."
The newest PGA Tour champ got to the winner's circle in unorthodox fashion at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. Schenk successfully implemented a one-handed putting method throughout the week to earn his maiden victory in his 243rd career tour start.

Here's a look at Schenk's one-handed putting in action—and the 33-year-old explaining the method to his madness on the greens:

Schenk says he got the tip to try this at the 3M Open in July from CBS Golf rules expert Mike Hulbert, who won three times on the PGA Tour and putted exclusively with his right hand for two years on tour. But taking it from practice to tournaments was a big jump.
"Can you do that in front of people? That's a big question. Like can you do it on tour? That's another big question," Schenk said after winning on Sunday. "I saw something on Instagram like a day or two later and it's like the left hand messes up a lot of things in the short game, especially in the putting stroke and as you're chipping or pitching, the way the club releases, and your left hand's kind of releasing way out here. So a lot of times your left hand gets, I guess, too active, or I lean on everything, kind of lean the shaft and handle dragger left, which I wasn't."
Schenk continued to practice this and other methods, including in his hotel room the night before the final round in Bermuda.
"You know, have to give credit, we're staying at the Princess," Schenk said. "They've got nice carpet in the hotel rooms to putt on. It's a little bit left to right as I putt towards the window and the bay, and as I putt towards the door, it's a little bit right to left."
Schenk said the winds were so strong he had to rest his left hand on the club as well—like he did on the winning putt—but that he kept trying to have his right hand doing all the work. If this looks and sounds familiar, that's because it is.
Tiger Woods made the one-handed putting drill famous:
And Tony Finau even took it for a spin earlier this year at the Memorial:

So how does it help? In a Golf Digest article, instructor Rick Smith said this drill does two things in particular.
“First, it will teach you to release the putterhead properly, which is one of the first things to break down when you're missing putts,” says Smith. “The second thing this drill does is restore your hand-eye coordination. By using only one hand, you tend to forget about the mechanics of putting and simply stroke it to the hole."
Schenk agrees. And he had a helpful message to all golfers after.

In other words, putt your putt. And swing your swing. Somewhere, Arnold Palmer is smiling.
