I don’t know how anyone can deny there is such a thing as performing under pressure. It’s basic psychology. Nobody in the pros is likely to “crumble” but there are certainly players who don’t perform as well. That’s complerely understandable. Not everyone can process that stress equally. Maybe the flaw in the “stats” guys is that the only tangible evidence with a large enough sample size extends to star players. Maybe the vast majority of stars can handle the pressure. But to think that all players perform the same in all scenarios is foolish.
