## Description

The timeless multimillion-copy phenomenon. 50th anniversary edition featuring a new foreword by Bill Gates. 'Groundbreaking . . . I still give it to friends today' – Bill Gates 'One of the most powerful mindset books ever written' – Daniel Pink, bestselling author of Drive With unparalleled insights into the mental landscape of performance, The Inner Game of Tennis provides you with the definitive framework for long-term success. Instead of concentrating on how to improve your technique, Timothy Gallwey starts from the understanding that 'every game is composed of two parts, an outer game and an inner game'. The former is played against opponents on the court, but the latter is a battle within ourselves as we try and overcome self-doubt and anxiety. It is often won or lost before a ball has been hit. In his revolutionary approach, with applications well beyond tennis, Gallwey will teach you how to: Trust the intuitive wisdom of your body Quiet your mind of worry, fear and distraction Achieve a state of ‘relaxed concentration’, in which success comes naturally Described by Billie Jean King as her 'tennis bible', Timothy Gallwey's international bestseller has been essential reading for sports players of all abilities since it was first published in 1974. Built on a foundation of Zen thinking and humanistic psychology, Gallwey’s method has had a far-reaching impact both on and off the tennis court. Whether you want to win at tennis, write a novel, get ahead at work, or simply unwind after a stressful day, Gallwey shows you how to tap into your utmost potential. This is your key to peak performance.

Review: An important read about coaching - Michael Lewis's Against the Rules podcast episode on inner game coaching put this book on my radar. As many have said, it is a tennis book only in part and is well worth a read for anyone interested in coaching, psychology and mindfulness. Despite fairly regular updates, some of the references (and one anecdote in particular) have not aged well.
Review: テニスを上達したい皆様にお勧めです - テニスってスランプの時に考えれば考えるほど上手くいかなかったりしますよね。この本はテニスを技術論でなく、精神面からアプローチして改善し、本来持っている力（本当は体が覚えているベストショット）を引き出す方法について書かれています。自分も何時も100%できるわけではありませんが、この本を読んでサーブは大分改善されてきました。テニスを上達したい皆様にお勧めですので、是非読んでみてください。

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Inner Game of Tennis and of Darts
*by J***H on 2025年11月21日に英国でレビュー済み*

This book is easily transferable to other sports. My chosen sport is Darts. I'm a reasonable player who has suffered from nerves and self doubt for years. I've tried lots of other motivational books and videos but never found too much improvement until this book. The techniques make perfect sense and work with immediate results. The quiet mind you'll acquire will improve your game very quickly. Just think of it as The Inner Game of Darts !
