Although the yips occurs commonly in golfers, this neurological movement disorder is a relatively unknown phenomenon among physicians.
A 47-year-old golf player developed a disturbing, neurological movement disorder that manifested when playing golf: the yips. These jerks occurred when putting, but not during practice rounds. The patient's father suffered from similar yips.
The yips is a task-specific dystonia, which can also manifest in players of other sports. Multiple factors, such as genetic predisposition and anxiety seem to be involved in its pathophysiology. The disorder is relatively common among both professional and amateur golfers. The adverse impact can be big and a cure is yet to be found.
尽管抽搐在高尔夫球手中很常见，但这种神经运动障碍在医生中却是一种相对鲜为人知的现象。
一名47岁的高尔夫球手患上了一种令人不安的神经运动障碍，在打高尔夫球时表现出来：抽搐。这些抽搐在推杆时出现，但在练习轮中不会出现。患者的父亲也患有类似的抽搐。
抽搐是一种特定任务性肌张力障碍，也可能出现在其他运动项目的运动员中。多种因素，如遗传易感性和焦虑，似乎都参与了其病理生理过程。这种疾病在职业和业余高尔夫球手中都相对常见。其负面影响可能很大，目前尚未找到治愈方法。
