Elena Rybakina isn't someone who likes to hear herself talk. She keeps things short and sweet. And that's exactly how she plays tennis.
The first Kazakhstani tennis player to win a major tournament, she's one of the most exciting players on the WTP tour right now and her service game is unique in the women's game.

Tennis pro Elena Rybakina on her winning mindset"I'm trying to show no emotions, I'm trying to be calm and not show if I'm upset or angry – no matter the situation." Showing emotions in sports is a balancing act that requires discipline, but also strategic thinking. In this special episode of Mind Set Win UNCUT, tennis star Elena Rybakina elaborates on how she’s able to walk the thin line between keeping calm regardless of the circumstances, but also knowing when showing her investment in a game is beneficial for her. The 2022 Wimbledon winner has continuously worked on this technique and is able to utilise this mental strength to her advantage during the crunch moments that decide the biggest titles in her sport. After all, tennis is like “active chess” – you have to know your opponent's next move before you finish your own. Listen out for another episode with Elena where York-Peter Klöppel and Cédric Dumont outline how we can apply this technique to ourselves.
