strange thoughts pop up during match

when I am ready to serve during a tennis match, strange thoughts pop up and distract me. Thoughts such as my swing feels wrong, my left shoulder turn too much...Then my serve becomes uncomfortable and I serve into the net of course. I can't seem to stop these strange feelings popping up.
