Wearable-Derived Sleep and Physiological Metrics Are Associated With Performance in Professional Golfers
Sleep and cardiac autonomic function were associated with elite golf performance. Both individual differences and within-athlete improvements were linked to better play, highlighting the potential role of sleep, RHR, and HRV in optimizing performance at the highest level of golf.
