TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Influence of racket properties on injuries and performance in tennis JO - Exercise and sport sciences reviews A1 - Hennig, Ewald M. SP - 62 EP - 66 VL - 35 IS - 2 N2 - Racket properties may affect tennis elbow development. Shock and vibration to the arm is influenced by the location of ball impacts on the racket head, racket stiffness, and grip force. Beginners experience increased arm loads, and they hit the ball lower on the racket head. Tennis rackets behave differently during actual play compared with the performance predicted by physics.
