Why do some tennis players always take a specific amount of time between points?

I was watching a match the other day, and it struck me how some players take their sweet time between points—like the ritual of bouncing the ball a certain number of times or adjusting their strings. Is there a psychological reason behind it? Do they think it helps them focus or throw off their opponent? I know some players get penalized for taking too long, but I’m curious about the backstory of those who do it. Anyone know if there’s a specific player or match that really exemplifies this?

Great observation! I’ve noticed that too—some routines are so precise they almost seem superstitious. I think for many players, it’s a mental reset and a way to stay in control under pressure. Nadal’s pre-serve rituals are probably the most famous example. It’s fascinating how psychology and performance go hand in hand in sports!

Hola, curioso que menciones eso, porque justo estaba buscando algo divertido para distraerme y me encontré con https://royals-tiger.es. Me llamó la atención por los bonos especiales que ofrecen para jugadores de España, así que decidí registrarme y probar suerte. Comencé jugando a la tragamonedas “Match Spin” y, tras algunas pérdidas pequeñas, arriesgué un poco más y terminé con un gran premio que me alegró el día. Desde entonces, cada vez que quiero desconectar y pasar un rato emocionante, vuelvo a jugar allí, y realmente lo recomendaría a cualquier aficionado al casino.
