The Pressure Point: A book about how athletes perform, freeze, recover, and decide outcomes under extreme pressure. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798901946862)

Why do some athletes rise when everything is at stake, while others freeze at the exact moment they need their skill most?

The Pressure Point explores the decisive moments that define sport: penalty kicks, final putts, match points, last shots, Olympic starts, title fights, comebacks, collapses, injuries, rivalries, records, and national expectation. Written in a polished, fact-based narrative style, this book examines how pressure acts on the body, the brain, the crowd, the coach, the team, and the individual athlete standing at the centre of consequence.

From famous sporting triumphs to painful public failures, it shows that pressure does not create greatness from nothing. It reveals preparation, trust, fatigue, fear, memory, decision-making, and resilience. For readers who love sport, psychology, competition, and human performance, this is a compelling look at the moments when everything narrows and history waits for one action.
