Why does competition lead to illusion of control?

I am on curriculum vol 2 p.60. It says choices, task familiarity, competition, and active involvement can all inflate confidence and generate such illusions.

All factors seem very reasonable, except competition. To me it’s even counter intuitive. When competition is fierce, people normally have less confidence because it is more difficult to win.

Why does it result in illusion of control? Any idea?
