Revisiting the Coach-Athlete Relationship Part 2: Developing an Elite Tennis Player

This is Episode 47 of Beyond Top 10 that continues our focus on the coach-athlete relationship with Talent Identification (ID) and its tie with Depression & Anxiety our topics of focus. Touching on the heartbreak and expectations of Talent ID systems to the increased rate of injury before the pitfalls of avoiding up-skilling is shared. Insights are shared from my latest book being penned with some secrets before an unusual name drop makes an appearance including Djokovic, Nadal, Federer, Osaka, Swiatek, Sabalenka, Gauff, Alcaraz, the one and only Serena to Pegula with commonalities! We then move to developing sustainable performances to build that next peak performance with data insights on our World 1st before changing gears to centre on mental health and its tie to these outcomes. From management strategies to examples from the likes of Federer, Nadal to Swiatek, emphasis is placed on the tennis player and tools that can be developed to better manage the broader and often complex landscape of an individuals mental health -- whether that be on or off court.

We get quite a bit of spam to bots and it's a simple trick up our sleeves to keep it cleaner and safer for all.
