Why the study?
Does golf expertise influence cardiac deceleration during putting?
Does golf expertise influence cardiac deceleration during putting?
Elite golfers exhibit greater cardiac deceleration (slower heart rates) during longer putts compared to beginners, suggesting physiological differences associated with expertise.
