The Misguided Egocentrism of "Playing Up" a Level in Tennis - a podcast by Brian Lutz

Why does everyone want to play up?  Parents brag about their kids playing in advanced levels.  Recreational players think to get better they need to play more advanced players.  Is it true?  Or is it our culture of achievement.

Cultural Buzz Words: Drive, Grind,  Plug Away, Knock Oneself Out, Play Like a Dog.

Brian gives examples of other sports and areas of life where "playing up" doesn't make sense.

SHOW NOTES: EPISODE 119

Hint: If you insist on playing up never lose more than 3 matches in a row.  Find somebody to beat!
