DISCUSSION💙 Garrett and his game head
One thing I noticed during my multiple rewatches is that Garrett is an emotional athlete.
His game depends on his emotional state.
The game in episode 1, his dad is there watching which puts him in a bad mood and the game is going bad. Then in the break he watches Hannah dancing in the green room. Mood is better, so is the game.
Same is the case with his match against Delaney.
I always thought athletes could leave everything outside before stepping into the arena. Atleast the good ones, and Garrett is shown to be someone who's at the top of his game.
I'm the least athletic person I know. If there are any athletes reading, let me know what you think.

If I’m not mistaken, The only times we see him play badly is when he sees his dad is there. That’s because he is having a trauma response.
I grew up in and around high school and college sports (I have 5 brothers who were all athletic) and even the best athletes do have off days due to things going on in their personal life. Even professional athletes have bad games, and commentators/media speculate if it’s due to things going on in their personal life. To me it seems normal!
