  Conceding putts is all about respect, I will always concede under 4 feet, i hope my opponents have the same respect.

  Wouldnt say its respect only. I still miss 3 footers every once in a while and as Atlanti says, just like in real matchplay a player must not expect automatically to be given a putt. If the opponent feels its missable, go ahead and putt it, and go on with the game. I wont take it personally.

  with regards to putts,i would concede any putt under 3ft really ,we are not that bad surely,i know a breaking putt might miss but i still would agree on 3ft.mind you i have missed little ones and with the pressure?

  if you say at the start that i will concede each hole within ten secs  depending if i think is unmissable then i wouldnt mind and im sure your opponent  wouldnt but make it clear that nothing against them but it is a matchplay situation and as i know anything can happen .

  if i was losing with a few holes to go as well,i wouldnt give em an inch putt lol

  ps i hope i get you next round if i get through john,4 foot is really generous

  Just a thought.  I love to see Pebble Beach as the final course for this tourney.  Be a shame not to have this beautiful course in the mix after waiting so long to finally get it.

  maybe if they bring the other 9 holes mate before the final maybe?

  urely in Match play this should be up to the individual players to decide on each putt? I am quite happy to concede a 4 foot putt that is straight, but make someone hit that nasty 2.5 footer breaking downhill.

   

  I take the Icon route when playing for credits..."show me you can make it"..

   

  I'll concede when I want to...and will let my opponent concede when he/she wants to.

   

  I/e  say players agree on 3 foot or less...

  I can think of several holes  that a 3 foot putt is tough, damned tough.

   

  BPB 15 of to the right or left and above the hole, Oak 9...many at Pebble, etc...

   

  Naw, for me I'll start with no concedes in the conversation, or concede what you want.
