  • 没有人能保持时时刻刻的百分比状态，顶尖运动员更能在关键时刻及时调整状态。

  • 54% 好像是费德勒职业生涯胜场比赛的总得分比。由于网球的记分规则，并不是每一球都同等重要，有时候运动员会为了一盘或整场比赛的考虑而放弃一局或一盘。

  • 苟到最后。这是网球场上唯一的胜利秘诀。太多绝地逆转的经典比赛，此处@Novak。这一条也配合第一条使用。在状态低潮时，最起码保证自己还在赛场上，不要彻底崩盘，使比赛还在继续，为自己争取状态提升的时间。

  • Play infinite game. 类似第四条，但infinite game更包括了对手，和整个职业生涯。Game is infinite 的关键是没有一方能完全碾压，以至于比赛在开始前就失去一切可能，变得毫无乐趣。即使在Novak巅峰时期，他也不是无懈可击的，如果具体去看某场比赛某个比分就会发现，每次胜利都包含着无数的意志、努力、运气、不确定性，这也是为什么每一次的胜利都值得庆祝。Game is infinite 的另一个含义是，game是某一分，但也是某一盘，某一场，甚至延伸至未来的整个职业生涯。所以随着game的含义变化，运动员必须学会以舍为得。Novak为了拥有更长的职业生涯，极端看重自己的身体健康。但也因此，在37岁之际，知道自己打奥运比赛的机会寥寥，所以堵上缩短自己未来的运动寿命，迅速做完手术回到赛场做最后一搏。感谢上帝，在2024年成全了他最后一个重要梦想🏅。
