Hi Lucas,
This is a common problem for players. The more you play the better you will get at dealing with it.
When you start to feel nervous, take a few seconds and take a nice deep breath and then think about the tactics you need for the next point.
We will be making a series on dealing with stress in tournaments in the future.
Also take a look through the previous questions on Mental preparation.
