    Hazel Irvine just mentioned that the young gold winning trampoline gymnast has recovered from lost skills syndrome.

    Now I know the reason for many of Dundee United players not performing.
    It’s a real condition

    I've forgotten how to score a 147 break in snooker.

    Simone Biles had it. They call it the Yips in darts or snooker. Jocky Wilson had it for a while and Bill Werbenuik needed 8 pints of lager to keep it at bay

    Doubt that young trampolinist has been downing 8 pints a day but I could be wrong.

    I reckon that sport would be even more entertaining if they all did.

    Bowlers in Cricket also can suffer from the yips in some extreme cases they find it nearly impossible to let the ball go while bowling due to atress
