His win in the <a href="/wiki/1957_Open_Championship" title="1957 Open Championship">1957 Open Championship</a> was with some controversy. Locke had failed to properly replace his ball after marking on the 72nd green, and proceeded to putt out. This had been confirmed through newsreel footage provided to <a href="/wiki/The_Royal_and_Ancient_Golf_Club_of_St_Andrews" title="The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews">the Royal and Ancient</a> after the trophy presentation. The rules at the time made no provision for a two shot penalty, thus Locke's win could have been overturned through disqualification. However, the Championship committee did not enforce the disqualification rule, citing "equity and spirit of the game" as overriding factors in sustaining the posted result. </p><p>During this time Locke also played many other parts of the world.

On the greens, Locke was a bona fide genius, using a very unusual putting style (he would bring the putter back far to the inside on the backstroke, then virtually "trap" the ball with a hooded, closed clubface on the forward stroke, imparting a tremendous amount of overspin), and a great eye for reading breaks, to put on veritable putting clinics every time he played. Locke believed he could put spin on putts<sup id="cite_ref-Hooker_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hooker-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> (similar to full-swing shots) and make them "hook" and "slice", and used his unorthodox technique to great success. </p><p>Locke was not particularly long from the tee, but placed great emphasis on accuracy in hitting fairways and greens; he employed an extreme right-to-left ball flight (one that bordered on a hook) on nearly every full shot.<sup id="cite_ref-Hooker_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hooker-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Australian contemporary pro <a href="/wiki/Jim_Ferrier" title="Jim Ferrier">Jim Ferrier</a>, who played the U.S. Tour during the late 1940s with Locke, described Locke's putting method as being designed to overcome the very heavy grain present on many Bermuda-grass greens of that era, particularly in warm-climate regions such as <a href="/wiki/South_Africa" title="South Africa">South Africa</a> and the southern United States. In these regions, greens had to be constructed during that era using Bermuda-grass turf in order to survive the extreme summer heat; turfgrass research eventually developed a wider variety of strains which could be used. Locke's putting method allowed the ball to glide on top of the grass without being affected very much by the grain. Ferrier explained that Locke had apparently learned the technique from an Englishman in <a href="/wiki/Egypt" title="Egypt">Egypt</a>, while he was stationed there during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>.
