In tennis, there is a lot of suffering from point-to-point, and game-to-game. If you can't persevere through that, you won't prevail. #tennis #wimbledon #sportpsychology


Very much in line with John Wooden's definition of success. Peace of mind, self-satisfaction, minimizing regret. And through this process of striving and of hope, have you conducted yourself with good character? Let that be part of the assessment in the end as well.

You know the hardest thing about elite level sport? You might not make it! You might fall short! Your best efforts may be a centimetre away, a millisecond too slow, one point too few... Some thoughts below in re-framing failure…please have a read 😀

I had a great chat with the guys at Tennis IQ, @PerformanceXtra and @jburgertennis, about both sport and charity. I believe the two can interweave beautifully. @HIAorg Check it out: youtu.be/vg8QBf9RVpo

Players: Your upcoming game doesn't care how good your last one was... Your upcoming game doesn't care how good your training week has been... Your upcoming game is stand-alone! Your very best attention, your optimal intensity, and your full-on positive intent... ...again!


Why is tennis so tough mentally? Well, it presents some unique challenges when compared to other sports. In this episode of the Tennis IQ Podcast, @tiebreakerpsych and I get into the details behind these challenges and how to handle them. #tennis #tennisiq podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-…

Congrats to Indian Wells champion and new world number 2 @iga_swiatek! She is a clear example of the benefits of focusing on the mental side of sport. #tennis #IgaŚwiatek #sportpsychology #tennisiq

"I just believe that mental toughness is like probably most important thing in tennis right now because everybody can play on the highest level." @iga_swiatek's breakthrough run catapulted Polish tennis and sport psychology to entirely new heights. tennis.com/pro-game/2020/…

Head coaches: -Don’t be an asshole -Develop as healthy & safe environment as possible -Keep the coach plan & process as simple as possible (but evidence-informed) -Use the people around you in an effective & fair manner -learn to appreciate the complex nature of human behaviour
