The Inner Game of Tennis

The Inner Game of Tennis says that optimal performances come when only you perform intuitively. The book approach teaches athletes to avoid the opportunity for self doubt by focusing on other things, such as the sounds of tennis play and religion. Some athletes use religious rituals to give them a sense of control over what happens before and during competition. It might be as simple as making a silent prayer as they enter the stadium or having inspirational words in the Bible stitched into their shorts.
