Page 2: Basic Mental Game

Tip 1:

Always have a general game plan.
Decide what style of game you want to play and stick to it.

Tip 2:

Play one point at a time and if possible even one stroke at a time.
Don't think back and not forward (movie effect).

Tip 3:

Try to pretend being behind in your mind even when leading.
One plays more serious and concentrated when trailing.

Tip 4:

Know your strength and go for it when the situation allows.

Tip 5:

Know your weakness and avoid it where ever possible.

Tip 6:

Slow the game down when loosing and speed up when winning with momentum on your side.
