my coach said that if somebody made a bad call on purpose, then they will play worse because they will have the bad call on their conscience,
if after a while, I find out that they don’t play worse, I debate it with them and offer to replay the point, if they refuse, I focus on kicking their ***
There is no real reason to agrue and rant and rave over a cheated or blown line call because the majority of the the time it hurts you more in the long run. The delay from the agruement throws off your timing and you also have a tendency when you get worked up to over hit.
so another thing that will normally kick in is anger (huge problem for me) How would you deal with anger? _________________ A fan of "that French backhand dude"

It is normal to get upset if you are not playing up to par or you feel you are getting cheated by an opponent or a line judge makes a bad call. This is something you just learn to block out after time . That is why you see alot of the most calm pros when they were younger and juniors were hot heads they had not learned how to block out distractions yet. Can you imaging playing in front of the French Open Center Court Crowd against Gasquet and everyone is booing you how would that make you feel. Well it doesn't seem to bother the pros on the court very much at all because they have learned to block out those things. It is very hard it is something I am still working on myself.
so, you mean move on from the mistake and consentrateon the next point, right _________________ A fan of "that French backhand dude"

Yes, that is the best thing to do. If you think about it it is only one point in the whole match and usually one point doesn't determine the match. But if you get distraction and turn it into a bunch of lost points and then a game or two and then a break then there could go the match.
I really struggle with cheaters. The problem is with challenging the call is in highschool we play on the honor code and usually the coaches have at least 3 other matches going on at the same time so it is hard for them to be watching at all times. I have lost a match last year because of it I think. It was my fault really I let it get into my head because it was a very important break point which my opponent called out and I lost it. My mental game is not the tops. _________________ Playing like a girl doesn't mean what it used to!
My Record Last Year: 13-5
I now know why some people are irritated by players who take such a long time to serve. I was playing this girl on Tuesday, and when I saw her serve in warm up, she had such a huge serve(only if it went in). And so I had to be very prepared for the serves that were to be coming my way. And so, she would bounce the ball like five times, then twirl her racquet in her hand like 4 times, then bounce the ball again, check if the second ball was behind her, then toss(oops, toss wasn't right, better toss again), and then finally serve. And it was windy, so it would usually be a fault. So she would have to do it all over again. And I couldn't just be sitting there waiting for a double fault, I had to be mentally alert in case the ball went in, so it was a mentally very taxing day for me. I did win 6-2, 6-0, but I was so frustrated afterwards. I did keep my composure, but it just bothered me during the match. _________________ www.freewebs.com/tenniswallpapers by myself and x.doublea
