"Clutch"

[David Rockwood]

I just heard a very interesting interview with Paul Sullivan, the author of the book "Clutch," a new book on the psychology of performing under pressure. The interview can be heard here:

He talks a lot about focus, adaptability, treating each shot and serve like "any other shot," mental toughness, etc. The interview is great and I think I may get the book. The interview is about 52 minutes long. Listen to it when you get a chance, well worth it. I may use the podcast, or parts of it, in my Sport Psych class.
