Abstract

Alterations in equipment can reduce the incidence and severity of overuse injuries in the competitive tennis player. Changes in racquet variables, court surface, footwear, and string tension play an important part in treatment of both upper and lower extremity injuries. Adequate time for rehabilitation is needed to prevent reinjury when returning to competition.
