Pressure, stress, and the threat of losing control all have the power to inhibit a tennis player's professional, athletic, and sometimes even everyday performance. How can the athlete manage these challenges? Wild Card is the must-have guide for navigating these difficult moments.

Guiding the reader through the highs and lows of a match, even an entire tournament, Laura Siegemund provides insight into extreme mental game situations and their complexity and resolves these situations together with mental coach and sports scientist, Prof. Dr. Stefan Brunner.
