Abstract: A golf cup insert having a hollow cylindrical first body member having an outer diameter and an inner diameter with the outer diameter being complementary to the inside diameter of an conventional golf putting cup. The inner diameter of the first body member is greater than the diameter of a conventional golf ball. The body member is frictionally held within the top portion of the golf putting cup through the engagement of the outer diameter of the body member frictionally engaging the inside diameter of the golf putting cup. A second hollow cylindrical body member is positioned within the inner diameter of the hollow cylindrical first body member. The inner diameter of the second body member is slightly greater than the diameter of a conventional golf ball. Both the first and second body members are preferably comprised of a sponge rubber material.
