willjonesjr - your biggest weakness is in your head

Seriously. I feel like you play a Very good baseline tennis, you defend very well and hit clean, nice shots...but...at some point you just "wonder around" and lose the upper hand in rally/match. And when you fall behind, you tend to play worse, you rush more, your timing goes a bit bad...and against a good player this means doom. I really think that your "button pressing" skills are up there, towards the top....after that it is all in your head....you need to keep believing, keep at it. Stop downplaying yourself and start feeling confident about little things - the big things will follow.
I have same issue sometimes against certain players, but most times I am not going away without a fight and I always try to have that extra gear to shift to if I need.
Puttu commands my utmost respect in this regard. He and Baghdad are the ones that simply don't break mentally. Hell, I even think Norberto "breaks" sometimes...but these guys just freaking keep coming!!!
Level 13 Edberg and counting...
