Lessons from Roger Federer

This stat will blow your mind

Hey!

As one of the greatest (maybe THE greatest) of all time, Roger Federer won about 82% of his professional tennis matches.

BUT—did you know. . .

He only won about 54% (just over half) of his total POINTS.

Put another way:

He won more than 4 out of 5 matches…but barely over 1 out of 2 points.

That’s a CRAZY stat to consider.

And there’s SO much we can learn from it.

Think about those close pickleball matches—11-9, 11-8, even 11-7.

What makes those extra 2, 3, or 4 points? It’s not always skill alone. It’s. . .

Discipline.
Mindset.
And the ability to bounce back after an error.

THAT is what separates the really great players from the okay ones.

Your ability to reset your mindset is EVERYTHING.

You can watch the video where I talk more about this here:

If you used the previous Selkirk LUXX paddles, you’re going to love the new LUXX Control Air with InfiniGrit.

They still have that pillowy feel, but now offer three times more spin and a foam core that adds extra power.
