So I've got good clarity, spent a bit of time on my focus, I got mobilized and good strength warm-up before I started. I'm feeling sharp on my feet. I'm now going to head to the court and importantly start quite controlled. So I'm going to start light on my feet and controlling the ball. I'm not going to be hitting 100% right from the very beginning, and this is a great way for me to get consistent performance every single time. If I have that same great warm-up, I know that I will start the match in the same way. Players are always talking about the importance of consistency in their matches, but so few have a routine that is consistent before they step on court. If you want to play at a high level consistently, you need to do something consistent before you step on court. So give this routine a go.
