Description
Winning Ugly: Mental Warfare in Tennis—Lessons from a Master by Brad Gilbert and Steve Jamison is a guide to mastering the mental and strategic aspects of tennis. The book argues that success on the court is not solely dependent on having “pretty” strokes, but rather on outthinking and outmaneuvering opponents. Gilbert, a former professional tennis player and coach, teaches readers how to analyze their opponents, identify their weaknesses, and force them to play your game. He shares a series of unconventional tips and tactics to help players of all levels win more often. The book is a practical “combat manual” that focuses on the psychological side of the game, providing strategies to maintain composure, seize opportunities, and ultimately secure victory.
