Optimal athletic performance is the result of a synergy between physical abilities and mental skills. Faced with increasing pressure in the world of tennis, athletes are constantly seeking new methods to optimize their performance. Music is a non-pharmacological tool that has demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing anxiety and improving sports performance.
