MELBOURNE (Reuters) - World number six Dominika Cibulkova took some time to be convinced of the value of using a sports psychologist but having reaped the benefits, the Slovakian believes every top player should give it a go.

Riding high from her career zenith when she won the WTA Finals at the first attempt in October, the 27-year-old says the work she has put in off the court with her Czech mind coach has made all the difference.
