Kershaw

A person who is generally considered elite in their particular sport, but who seems to choke regularly in important games or situations. Can be synonymous with a player who performs well in a regular season, or smaller events, but chokes in the playoffs, postseason, or major events. Named for Clayton Kershaw, starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who as of 10/10/2019 sports a career 2.44 ERA in the regular season, but 4.43 ERA in the postseason.

Bryan's team missed a chance to make the state soccer championship last night because he allowed a season worst 7 goals. He's such a Kershaw!

Kershawing

An unintentional failure to meet important expectations that were based around prior experience.

Named after the star pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Clayton Kershaw, who infamously played baseball worse in the postseason than he did in the regular season.

The state champion football team kershawed their way out of a national title, after expecting themselves to cruise their way to victory without a sense of seriousness. Kershawing serves as a reality check for "unstoppable" teams/individuals.
