    How to Manage Stress or Anxiety When Playing Tennis Aug 03, 2023

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about how to manage anxiety and stress when playing tennis.

    JENNY: "I get really bad anxiety and stress playing tennis. I do enjoy playing it and practicing it, but I don’t really enjoy the competitive side because of all the stress it gives me. Instead of doing tennis, I was maybe deciding on doing track instead. I’m pretty good at that too and not scared. It’s fun and I enjoy it. I’m just scared that I might regret doing track in the future and not tennis. I would just really like some advice."

    Helping Tennis Players Who Get Complacent During Matches Jul 13, 2023

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about his son who protects his lead in the match. Here's the question of the week:

    PETER: My son played a semifinal match and he was ahead 6-2 5-2 and playing amazingly. Then according to him, he started playing safe to close the match. The match went to a set tie break and lost 9-11 the set. He told us afterwards that he was bored at the 3rd set, which we translated it as having too much pressure and not being able to perform. He said that he felt as of he doesn't know how to play tennis. What’s your take on this?

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about helping his young athlete with fragile confidence. Here is the question of the week:

    ELVIS: I am a parent of an 8-year-old daughter, who makes a lot of unforced errors. I train her myself, even though I do not have formal tennis education. Last game, a junior's semifinal, she made 10 unforced errors within 10 points overall (10-7 overall score for her opponent). I wonder if there is any chance for these mentally fragile kids to succeed and became champions eventually based on your experience?

    LUCY: I’ve won a lot of matches pushing the ball and driving all my opponents insane! Now, I finally learned to hit a forehand and I have a complete game in practice.

    What to do if You Take Mental Naps During Matches May 11, 2023

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader who takes micronaps during points and not finishing off the point. Here's the question of the week:

    OHN: I recently noticed that I sometimes take "micronaps" during points. Especially when I hit the ball well, I "reward" myself by resting, rather than aggressively preparing for the next shot. My guess is that this is because my conditioning isn't good enough, so my body is constantly asking for rest. This seems to happen at a subconscious level, leading to frustration when my on-court reactions are inexplicably delayed. How can I stay focused?

    Helping Young Tennis Players Retain Lessons Mar 30, 2023

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about how to help young tennis players retain their lessons. Here's the question of the week:

    CHRIS: My nephew and I have been hitting since he was 7. The struggle is I’ve been trying to get him to attend to the basics like watching the ball and rotating his body as he swings at the ball. He seems to get it in our practice session, but then doesn’t retain it the next time we hit. It’s almost like it’s “Groundhog Day” with him. Success comes in waves and then next time we hit, it quickly fades away and we start over some.

    Should You Quit Tennis Due to a Weak Mental Game? Mar 09, 2023

    In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader who is thinking about quiting tennis because her mental game is not up to speed with her physical game. Here's the question of the week:

    ALEX: Yesterday I experienced a pretty tough loss against an opponent I had won over earlier this year. 6-1, 5-1 was the score when I had two match points. I guess I was afraid of winning, but I also started to think about the future and how nice it would be to go out for dinner and play another match tomorrow. I basically forgot to think about my game plan and win the match. Should I quit because of my weak tennis mentality, or should I continue?

    How to Play Opponents That Get Into Your Head Jan 20, 2019

    Do you struggle with playing 3 or 4 specific opponents and keep losing to them over and over and it gets into your head?

    In this week's tennis psychology podcast, mental game of tennis expert, Dr. Patrick Cohn answers a question from Megan who struggles to beat a few specific opponents.

    Here's what Megan had to say about her game:

    "My problem is that I have too much pressure on me when I play 3 or 4 specific players because I've lost to them constantly since the past 8 years and it's actually all mental because I've been told that I'm better tan them, quickest than them, fitter than them, stronger than them... Other's don't understand why i lose to them every time. I get too nervous or anxious or just mentally breakdown in the match against them. I care a lot about beating these players and I really need your help."

    COHN: Thanks for the questions... I think this is very common for players to get certain individuals into their head, certain opponents in their head where they feel like they can't perform their best against these opponents.

    COHN: Now, I will say, sometimes you aren't going to match up well against specific players. For examples, if you play a baseliner that gets everything back and that's just not your game or you struggle with that type of player.

    COHN: That can happen in tennis where you just simply don't match-up well. Your style of tennis doesn't match up well with your opponents...

    COHN: With that said, let's talk about the mental factors that go into this...

    How to Let Go of Comfort Zones in Tennis Dec 09, 2018

    Do you ever find yourself cruising along in a match and the second set or third set you're in command and controlling your opponent and then all of the sudden, BOOM! Something happens and you lose the match?

    In this week's tennis psychology podcast, mental game of tennis expert, Dr. Patrick Cohn answers a question from Sebastian who said he was recently playing a 3rd set, was in command and eventually lost the match.

    Here's what Sebastian had to say about his game:

    "Yesterday I was up 4-0 in the 3rd set and was controlling my opponent and then something just happened... I lost my focus and lost the match and the 3rd set for 6."

    COHN: You are not alone, Sebastian. I see a lot of junior players that tend to tighten up when they get in the lead. They maybe split sets and now they are playing a 3rd set, they might be well in command, up maybe 5-2, 4-1 or 4-0 like you and then all of the sudden BOOM! something happens.

    COHN: Well, what happened? Certainly, you lost your focus but most of the time this issue is around comfort zones.

    COHN: Comfort zones prevent you from stepping outside and continuing to play your game when you're in the lead and when you are in command of the match.

    COHN: Typically what will happen is you go into protect mode. You start to play safe, you worry about missing and you wait for your opponent to miss.

    COHN: Essentially, you stopped playing the game that got you to 4-0 in the 3rd set...

    COHN: What is the problem?

I give up. So I've been trying to find ways to keep my cool and stay mentally tough. I hate losing and then I get all the thoughts of what people are going to think f me, especially my parents. Ive been trying to deal with this but I cant and as soon as is tart to think of it, i start to push the ball in the court or hit extremely had for no reason. I can be extremely hard on myself and I could really use your help."

    COHN: Part of the reason that your hard on yourself and that you get easily frustrated and hate losing is because it it sounds like there is some perfectionism that you have with your game

    COHN: Now, what goes with the perfectionism?

    COHN: One of the things that goes with the perfectionism is very high expectations for your performance, even in a practice situation when your coach sees that, where you're not being able to learn fast enough or you miss hitting shots and you probably get upset.

    COHN: I don't think its so much about being stubborn or being a bull as it is that you demand so much of yourself that you price in perfection in terms of your performance.

    COHN: Whats the challenge with perfectionism? What can you do?

    How to Take Your Tennis Game to The Next Level Nov 11, 2018

    Do you have trouble taking your game to the next level and maybe beating that person that is 1 level ahead of you or higher ranked than you?

    In this week's tennis psychology podcast, mental game of tennis expert, Dr. Patrick Cohn answers a question from Riley about how do you take your game to the next level without falling into the mindset of happy loser.

    Here's what Riley had to say:

    "Maybe you could give some tips or advice on how young players can go to the next level... Maybe beat that person who is on that next level above them without being the happy loser without falling prey to the tennis demons? the answer might be just keep going until it happens but the problem with that approach is that it does not address the happy loser mentality and if this is a real thing, then you may never win because of it."

    COHN: Riley, good question...

    COHN: I've worked with a lot of juniors that tend to get psyched out when they are playing an opponent that is seeded higher than them or is ranked higher than them for example and get into that mentality that they chalk this one up to another loss before they even get on the court and that's not going to help.

    In this week's tennis psychology podcast, mental game of tennis expert, Dr. Patrick Cohn answers a questions from a tennis parent.

    Ramona wrote in and said:

    "My son is 11 years old. He's been playing tennis since he was 5. He's a top player in India in the 12 and unders. At times he has a couple of double faults in a row. The body language gets really bad and he's in tears after a couple of double faults. However, when is first serve is spot on, the rest of the game will pick up. I'm assuming that the state of mind determines whether you'll have a good serve or not."

    The mindset that you take to the court and that you maintain on the court is going to be extremely important...

    Taking Your Practice Game to Tennis Matches Oct 29, 2017

    What causes tennis players to not take their full game that they’re capable of to a match situation and what can you do about it.

    Arry wrote in and said:

    "I am a competitive junior tennis player. Recently, I’ve been having a lot of trouble bringing what I practice to tournaments. I’m playing a lot of tennis and my improvement shows in practice matches. Do you have any strategies that will help me perform more freely in tournaments?"

    First you need to identify what’s changing for you from practice to tournaments.

    Often, it is about fear of failure.

    If you aren’t playing freely, you are playing tight and controlled.

    How can you overcome fear of failure to play more freely?

    Helping Tennis Players Who Get Frustrated and Tank Oct 15, 2017

    How can you help your young tennis player stay composed on the tennis court?

    Suzy wrote in and said:

    “My 10 year old son plays tennis four times a week at his club. However, when he’s in a tournament, a bad shot, tough opponent and a double fault will literally have him crying his way through the match.He shouts at himself and his negativity is unbearable to watch as a parent. I need help, I don’t know how to help him anymore.”

    This is the #1 complaint that we get from sports parents about how kids tend to act out, check out, tank, get emotionally upset and frustrated and then their performance snowballs out of control because they can’t regain emotional control.

    One of the worst things you can do as a parent is bring attention to their frustration and punish them for it.

    Why?

    They only learn that the behavior is wrong but not the skills to improve that behavior.

    What can you do as a sports parent to give them the skills to stay composed?
