TOP TIP: FOCUS - Think about the bubble

Maintaining focus is crucial in tennis. Staying attentive and concentrated throughout the match can make a significant difference in your performance and overall success on the court. When you're able to keep your mind engaged and your attention fixed on the task at hand, you're more likely to execute your shots accurately, anticipate your opponent's moves, and make strategic decisions that give you an edge. Losing focus, on the other hand, can lead to unforced errors, missed opportunities, and an inability to adapt to the changing dynamics of the game. Developing the discipline to remain mentally present and focused, even in the face of distractions or adversity, is a vital ingredient of great tennis players and can be the key to winning close matches. In practical terms think of it like a bubble. When the point is about to begin, remain in the bubble and stay hyper focused throughout the point. When the point is over burst the bubble - relax, reflect and reset. Try it next time you’re on court and let me know you get on.
