A new survey reveals fans wildly overestimate their own athletic abilities, with a quarter believing they could score in a Premier League match, 14% think they’d match a pro golfer on one hole, and 18% reckon they could return a top tennis serve.

Still, the passion is undeniable—fans love underdog stories and are willing to believe they can compete, even against the best.
