What is a Service Routine in Tennis?

In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about why tennis players can hit the ball well in practice but not their matches. And do the yips exist in tennis? Here's the question of the week. SHERRY: "How can I overcome the yips on my forehand during competition? I seem to be able to hit it just fine during the warmup, but during matches I find myself tightening up and not swinging freely or normally. Why do my strokes change in matches?"

Why Tennis Players' Strokes Tighten Up During Matches

In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about how to manage anxiety and stress when playing tennis. JENNY: "I get really bad anxiety and stress playing tennis. I do enjoy playing it and practicing it, but I don’t really enjoy the competitive side because of all the stress it gives me. Instead of doing tennis, I was maybe deciding on doing track instead. I’m pretty good at that too and not scared. It’s fun and I enjoy it. I’m just scared that I might regret doing track in the future and not tennis. I would just really like some advice."
