Everyone in tennis talks about the importance of mindset. From players and commentators to parents and coaches, it’s universally acknowledged that your mental game is just as crucial as your physical skills. But here’s a harsh truth: Simply knowing that mindset matters isn’t enough to make a difference in your performance.

Let’s put it this way—if you realise your forehand needs improvement but never take the time to practice or analyse it, do you really expect it to get better? Of course not. The same principle applies to your mental game. Understanding that mindset is important is just the first step. If you’re not actively working on strengthening it, you’re essentially leaving a crucial part of your game on the sidelines.

The reality is that most players neglect mindset training because it’s intangible. It’s much easier to focus on things you can see and measure—your technique, your fitness, your match stats. But here’s the catch: Everything you do on the court starts in your mind. How you train, how you compete, how you handle pressure, how you recover from setbacks—all of it is rooted in your mental state. If your mindset isn’t strong, it will show when the stakes are high.

At some point in your tennis journey, you’ll face challenges that test your mental strength—a losing streak, a particularly tough opponent, or the pressure of an important match. When those moments come, your mindset will be the deciding factor between success and failure. And if you haven’t put in the work to develop mental toughness, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: If you’re not dedicating time to improve your mindset, you’re holding yourself back. You’re limiting your potential and making it harder to overcome the inevitable obstacles that come with being a competitive tennis player. The good news? It doesn’t have to be this way.
