You're not playing your opponent's reputation, family, or anything like that. Another thing that will help you to keep from being intimidated is to stay competitive. Take advantage of all the opportunities when they arise and use them to tip the game in your favor. So, he has everything to lose, and you have everything to gain. This is a great way to stay focused so that you can deal with any sort of situation in the game and also so that you can deal with any sort of situation in the game and also so that you can take advantage of your opponent's weaknesses. However, what happens most of the time is that this might cause you to over play and make mistakes that could cost you the game. One time about five years ago my forehand went off the boil and my ranking slipped. I practiced and practiced but still it wasn't going for me - then the coach I was working with at the time (some of you might remember him if you're British - Chris Wilkinson) told me to concentrate on hitting out in front. I cannot emphasize this point enough; it's so simple but yet so often over-looked. Once the tennis lesson with the pro is over most players go straight back to working on their strengths and forget about anything else! An hour a week with a pro is not enough to significantly improve any
