Sign-up to Receive Jeff Greenwald's Fearless Sports Mastery Guide to Play Loose and Win More!
My primary objective is to help athletes play more freely in competition and learn how to replicate this in competition. I have helped professional, junior, college and league tennis players, youth athletes in all sports, athletes in the NBA, MLB, professional and amateur golfers, and CEO's who push the limits in business and continue to compete in both golf and tennis.
Over two decades ago, I discovered what it truly feels like to play loose in competition--consistently. Using what became my three performance dials (focus, loose and intensity), I earned the No. 1 world ranking in my age group, winning two World Championships and 13 National titles. I have been helping athletes, and thousands of tennis players around the globe find freedom on and off the court/field since 1997.
