Michael Wayman Interview - Play Better in League/Tournament Matches Mindset - Part 1

My good friend and men's coach at St. Mary's College out here in northern California, Michael Wayman, and my coach for the past year or so, was kind enough to spend some time on the phone with me this morning.

You may have not heard of Michael, an outrageously good player at 55, but he knows the game of tennis as well as anyone I know.

Michael was an All-American at USC - University of Southern California (that's right, we won't hold that against him fellow Cal Bear fans, right...?) and he played on the men's pro tour for 8 years.

During his playing career, Michael had singles wins over then world #5 Gene Mayer; Ille Nastase; Guillermo Vilas; and doubles wins over John McEnroe and Stan Smith.

This guy has been there, done that, and to me is a vast wealth of knowledge...

And Michael is one of those rare former top world players who has been able to articulate the game to "the rest of us" in terms that we not only can understand, but in terms that actually helps us improve our games.

And believe me, that's not as easy as it might seem.

OK, enough of an intro for Michael and let's get down to the 3 questions I asked Michael to discuss this morning.

Lots of players are frustrated about:

• Being a good practice match player but play nowhere near that level in either a league or tournament match when it counts.
• In a league or tournament match against an equal or lesser rated player, we win the first set, get up a break in the 2nd, and can't close it out.
• In a league or tournament match against a higher rated player, we win the first set and can't close it out.
• For the above questions I asked Michael to help us define what's the problem, what's the solution, and how does one practice the solution?

The interview is about 37 minutes in duration.

Discover how to consistently play your best tennis in league, tournament, & practice matches...

Just imagine this...

So far, you've played this match with confidence, and after winning the first set 7-5, you're now ahead serving at 4-2 in the 2nd set...

In the past however, you consciously sensed that the finish line was close.

In those prior matches, you used to want the victory so badly that you almost hoped your opponent would simply just lay down and give you the rest of the match.

But instead, your opponent felt relaxed with nothing to lose, starts to play that way, and the next thing you know, they'd be serving at 6-5, and all too often you'd lose that 2nd set and eventually the 3rd set as well.

But those days are gone, a thing of the past, and instead, at 4-2 in the 2nd set, you coolly take your time, don't consider the outcome of winning or choking the match, and simply and easily keep your mind on each individual upcoming point, hold serve at love, and then break your opponent's serve to close out the match with a victory 7-5, 6-2.

You can make this happen...

Discover the 7 simple secrets to allow you to confidently thrive in match play.
