What I tell them to do is to work on their shots and not play down. Still play at a very high level and work on things they don't normally get to work on in a tighter match. And just be consistent.
I want them to be able to play at a high quality all the time, regardless of the strength of the opponent. And we're not there yet.
I think they let down when they think they're playing an opponent that's not that strong. They've got to learn that you have to play at a high quality all the time.
