I think individuals respond to pressure differently, and so one strategy will not fit all for individual performers.

The more interesting question for me, is statistically, what's the best choice, a question whose answer would possibly work best for large teams, like the football/soccer teams. But even there, I think there is a place for investigation...is it better to have the quarterback in football or maybe the goalie in hockey relaxed and focussed than to go with what works best for the majority of the team?

I suppose this is why coaches make big bucks, but it should be something that could be dealt with statistically.
