I think you are right about the mental part. Often for me there was a nexus. I really excelled at breaking better players down over the whole match--one of my friends suggested this was revealing a character flaw. One of the best matches I played was when I was a senior against a top ranked freshman with huge strokes. By the end of the match he was so fed up with the mix of deep looping high balls to his backhand and low slice to the other side that he was trying to hit winners from several steps behind the baseline, rather than wait for 10 or so exchanges to get a setup ball, with predictable results.
