Every tennis player has a unique mental approach to the game.
The most successful players, professional or amateur, are those who best understand the way their brains work. Coaches and tennis experts will tell you the key to on-court success is learning the skills at a young age, training exhaustively or having an athletic physique. But American sports scientist, Jon Niednagel, thinks it's all down to the wiring of the brain. Niednagel says that within your brain different mental, cognitive, spatial, visual and physical abilities can combine in any number of ways to form individual 'brain types' which he believes shape the aptitudes of all human beings. No. 1 tennis player, because you have to have that innate wiring to be those things.
