This effect persists after adjusting for knowledge of the green, the precariousness of the position from which the golfer was putting, differences specific to the tournament in which the golfer was playing, and whether golfers experience additional anxiety or overconfidence when shooting for birdie (i.e., one under par) or par putts.
