What You Do Between Points Is Why YOU LOSE Tennis Matches!

Most tennis players focus 100% on strokes… and completely ignore what happens between points.
But here’s the truth: 75–85% of a match is played in between points.
And that’s exactly where matches are won or lost.
In this video, you’ll learn the 4-step between-point routine used by top players, based on the work of Dr. Jim Loehr and adapted by the USTA:

1) Response (control your body language)
2) Relax (release tension fast)
3) Refocus (reset your thoughts)
4) Ready (commit to the next point)

If you’ve ever played great in practice but struggled in matches due to nerves, frustration, or negative thinking—this will change the way you compete.

🎾 Start using your in-between time like a pro and become a smarter, tougher competitor.
💬 Let me know in the comments: which of the 4 R’s do you struggle with most?
