Publisher's Summary
Winning Without Winning: Mastering No Attachment Tennis is more than just a book, it is a game changer in sports psychology; it's your partner, your coach, your confidant in pursuit of becoming the greatest of all time in the sport of tennis. Written by tennis players for tennis players; to those select few committed to dominating the sport this book delves into the science, psychology, and practical techniques of detaching from outcomes, attachments, and the traditional notions of victory. It is a less-trodden path in the arena of competitive tennis, marrying Eastern philosophies of detachment and mindfulness with Western competitiveness. It is a guide for anyone seeking to "serve" an ace in the psychological aspects of tennis. Beginning with a comprehensive deconstruction of attachment in tennis, it swiftly "returns serve" with an engaging foray into the science of detachment. No meditative chants or incense required; instead, it offers a grounded, research-backed understanding of detachment, encourages befriending the present moment, and introduces mindfulness and meditation as the coach and fitness trainer for the mental aspect of the game. It's not about transcending to the Himalayas, but anchoring on the court—no extra equipment required!
With the paradoxical Zen of losing concepts, it draws on an all-star lineup from Agassi, Federer, Mac, to doubles specialists the Bryans, Ram, Salisbury, Arevalo, and Rojer, presenting the art of detached victory and practical techniques for achieving this seemingly oxymoronic state. It's all about winning without "winning". Or is it about "winning" without winning? Confused? You won't be.
