A ridiculous statement!

Ok, lets see. If my performance (score) in golf is to shoot the lowest score, NO OTHER person on the course can effect MY SCORE. If so, please tell me how?

In tennis, my performance (score) is AWAYS effected by my opponent! He/she may hit an ace serve, passing shot, drop shot, lob over me, etc. to score points. I may hit a great service return and have my opponent hit an even better shot and win that point. He/she may win some games, some sets, even the match?

You think a defensive back, point guard, hockey goalie, etc. have NO EFFECT on their opponents performance?

Perhaps you are confusing 'performance' (the final score) with one's 'ability' (their inherent or aquired skills)? There we can agree.
