Resumo(s)
The aim of this study was to investigate how a player responds to external
constraints (slope and angle) in a golf putting task. The sample consisted of 10
adult male (33.8 ± 11.89 years), right handed and highly skilled golfers (average
handicap of 10.82). The participants performed 30 putts at a distance of two
meters with 25 degrees to the left of the hole (Angle 1) and 30 putts at a distance
of two meters with 25 degrees to the right of the hole (Angle 2), with a constraint
imposed by a slope. The data suggests that the performance of the golf putting
may be improved if different situations and difficulty degrees are employed and
exploited. In that sense, the manipulation of task related constraints forced the
appearance of solutions uniquely adjusted to each player. This brings implications
to the area of sports coaching and training, considering that the athlete can optimize
his performance if he explores different couplings of information-movement, in
different levels of complexity.
