The putting routine and the speed checks from this video, written out properly — The Caddie's Short Game and The Complete María Golf Library: https://mariahernandezgolf.netlify.ap...
Most three-putts are not a stroke problem. They start with the first putt finishing well short, or well past. In this video María shows the one thing she took from Lee Trevino's putting: look at the hole, not the ball, and let the putter start back while your eyes are still coming back to it. Plus the old teaching pro who taught her to feel the speed of a green by rolling balls underhand. No new stroke, no new putter.
In this video:
Fix 1: speed before line (the underhand roll, on the practice green only)
Fix 2: a good miss finishes just past the hole (Dave Pelz's seventeen inches, as a guide)
Fix 3: short putts get a shorter stroke (Trevino's ball-back tip)
Fix 4: look at the hole, and go
For the body that has changed: stiff back, a new knee or hip, hands that are not as quiet, plus a sock-in-the-hallway drill for tonight
The key: why all four put the target in your eyes last
Everything is described for a right-handed golfer; left-handers mirror it.
Four golf books for golfers over 50: The Dependable Fade (a ball flight you can aim), Free Distance (easier yards without swinging harder), The Caddie's Short Game (chipping, pitching and putting), and The Money Game (the decisions that save shots, only in the complete Library).

Quotes and figures in the video come from published sources: GOLF.com (Jack Hirsh, December 2023, and Zephyr Melton, February 2023, on Lee Trevino's putting; Dylan Dethier's 2025 interview), The Open's 2020 podcast with Lee Trevino, Dave Pelz's short-game research as reported by GOLF.com, and Mark Broadie's strokes-gained research. "Never" in the title is a hook, not a promise: nobody can promise you will never three-putt, and tour professionals three-putt too. "Old Mexican" refers to Lee Trevino and the way he putted, not to any Mexican method; there isn't one. Rolling balls by hand is for the practice green only, never on the greens you are playing.
María is a digital, AI-generated presenter, not a teaching professional. Frank, her old teaching pro, is a character. Educational content: no particular score is promised, and nothing here is medical advice. Work within a comfortable range and never force a position that hurts. If you have back, hip or knee problems, or a joint replacement, check with your doctor or physiotherapist first.
