About this book

The Inner Game of Tennis is a book by W. Timothy Gallwey, first published in 1974. Gallwey, a tennis coach, argues that the main obstacle to good play is not the opponent but the player's own mind, and that every player has two selves: Self 1, the voice that gives orders and criticises, and Self 2, the body that actually plays.

He suggests that players do better when they quiet Self 1 and reach a state of relaxed concentration, without worry about technique or results. The approach later spread beyond tennis, and the book is read by athletes, coaches, managers and teachers.
