Tennis psychology is nothing more than understanding the workings of your opponent's mind, and measure the influence of your own game in a mental perspective, and understand the impact of mental disorders resulting from various external causes on your own mind. You can not be a successful psychologist of others without first understanding your own mental processes, you have to study the effects on yourself the same under different circumstances. You react differently in different moods and under different conditions. You should be aware of the effect on your game, fun irritation resulting in confusion, or whatever form your reaction takes. Do increase your efficiency? If so, try for it, but never give it to the opponent.

Did you lose concentration? If so, look for the cause, or if it is not possible try to ignore it.
Once you have judged accurately your own reaction to conditions, study your opponents, to decide their temperaments. Like temperaments react the same, and you may judge men of your own type itself. Contrary temperament you should try to compare with people who know your reaction.

Someone who can control his own mental processes, a good opportunity to read another person's mental, for the human mind works along definite lines of thought, and could be studied. We can only control one's, mental processes after carefully studying them.

A stable baseline apathetic players rarely have a keen mind. If he is he will not comply with the baseline.

Physical appearance of a man is usually the index is quite clear for this type of mind. Those quiet, relaxed, usually supporters of the baseline game, whether it's because he hates to generate blunt mind to think out a safe method of reaching the net. There are other types of baseline player, who prefers to remain in the back court while directing an attack intended to break down your game. He is a very dangerous player, and antagonist, deep thinking sharp. He achieved that result by mixing length and direction, and worrying about you with various games. He was a good psychologist. The first type of player who is mentioned only hits the ball with little idea of what he did, while the latter always has a definite plan and in accordance with it. Hard-hitting, erratic, net-rushing player is a creature of impulse. There is no real system to attack, do not understand your game. He will make brilliant coups on the sudden, largely by instinct, but no, mental power of consistent thinking. It is a type, draw interesting.

Dangerous person is a mixture of styles of players back to fore court at the direction of the mind that is always vigilant. This is the man to learn from him. He is a player with a definite goal. A player who has the answer for every query you ask him in your game. He is the most subtle antagonist in the world. He is from the school Brookes. Second only to him was a steady determination that sets his mind on one plan and in accordance with it, bitter, hard fought until the end, with never a thought of change. He was a psychology easy to understand, but the mental point of view that is difficult to be angry, because he never let himself think about anything except the business at hand. This man is your Johnston or your Wilding. I respect the mental capacity of Brookes more, but I admire the tenacity of purpose Johnston.

Choosing your type of your own mental processes, and then work out your game along the lines of best fit for you.

When the two men, in the same class, in terms of stroke equipment, the deciding factor in any given game is a mental standpoint. Luck, called, often holding the psychological value of a break in the game, and turning it into your own account.

We hear a lot about the "image we have created." Few realize the importance of "image we have missed." Science missing shots is as important that they manufacture, and at times missed by inches a value of more than, the return was killed by the opponent.

Let me explain. A player drives you far out of court with the shot-point. You run hard for it, and reaching, drive it hard and fast into the side-line, missing it by an inch. Your opponent was shocked and shaken, realizing that your shot might as well have been as out. He will expect you to try again, and will not take the risk next time. He will try to play ball, and may fall into error. You have thus taken some confidence in your opponent, and increase the chance of errors, all by a miss.

If you have just come back to that again, and it has been killed, your opponent will feel more confident of your inability to get the ball out of reach, while you will only winded without result.

Let's assume you make a shot down the sideline. It is apparently impossible to get. First amounted to TWO points in that case take one of your opponent and that should give you one you do not have to have. It also worries your opponent, because he felt he had thrown away a great opportunity.

Psychology tennis match is very interesting, but easy to understand. Both men start with equal opportunities. Once you set one real lead, his confidence goes up, while his opponent worries, and mental outlook to be poor. First person singular object is to continue to lead, thus holding the belief itself. If the second player even attractive or interesting in the future, the inevitable reaction occurs with even greater contrast in psychology. There is a natural confidence of a leader now with a second person also that the major stimulus has changed defeat into victory seemed likely. Conversely in case the first player that is right to destroy without any hope of his game, and collapse follows.
