  • Clutch Strokes: Performance Under Pressure in Golf
    COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS Clutch Strokes: Performance Under Pressure in Golf Jeffrey Paadre This paper examines 10 years worth of PGA Tour Tournament data in order to examine whether or not clutch performance exists during the final round of a tournament. After controlling scores for differences in course difficulty, the paper finds no evidence of tangible clutch performance. The authors find that the perception of clutch performance is more likely attributable to talent differential between golfers. Assuming a normal distribution of golfer talent, it is possible that Tiger Woods can outshoot his opponents on the final day of a tournament as well as lose his lead to his competitors. Motivation and Literature In professional sports, heroes can be created through the concept of clutch performance. The perception of clutch performance occurs when an athlete raises his or her performance to an extraordinary level during the most important moments of a sporting event. Athletes such as David Ortiz and Adam Vinatieri have been immortalized as legends due to their consistent ability to help their teams win baseball and football games during important games where the outcome was hanging in the balance. Conversely Bill Buckner and Scott Norwood are amongst the unfortunate athletes burdened with reputations as choke artists based on their inability to perform well when their teams needed a high performance the most. One of the challenges that accompanies examining performance under pressure lies within trying to define which performances constitute clutch performance. For example, in 2005 John Henry, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, presented David Ortiz with a plaque inscribed “David Ortiz: The Greatest Clutch Hitter in the History of the Boston Red Sox”.

CLICK HERE FOR SECOND ROUND PAIRINGS CLICK HERE FOR ALPHABETICAL LIST OF TEE TIMES Parnevik (63) Leads Langer (64) After First Round At Oasis Championship BOCA RATON, Florida -- They can be viewed as golf’s Odd Couple. Jesper Parnevik is sort of a Swedish meatball, always trying different things such as eating volcanic sand and wondering things like if you stretch a piece of string 6 inches off the ground across the globe, how long would it be? He changes swings like the rest of us changes socks. He has won just one PGA TOUR Champions event in 84 starts after earning five PGA TOUR titles. Bernhard Langer is a German machine. As disciplined as the sun. He never wavers, never changes his swing and rarely misses a shot. He has won 38 PGA TOUR Champions events and has been Player of the Year eight times. Friday, Parnevik shot a 9-under 63 to lead the Oasis Championship by a shot over Langer. They are atop a star-studded leader board after the first round at The Old Course at Broken Sound. Parnevik thought he had more of a chance of shooting 83 instead of 63 after he went into “panic mode” on Thursday while struggling with his game. “I probably tried 40 putters just this week and probably 50 different strokes,” he said.
