    PLAYER PERCEPTIONS AND BIOMECHANICAL RESPONSES TO TENNIS COURT SURFACES: THE IMPLICATIONS TO TECHNIQUE AND INJURY RISK Submitted by Chelsea Starbuck, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sport and Health Sciences September 2014 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 1 Abstract Elite tennis players are required to perform on a variety of tennis court surfaces which differ in mechanical characteristics, such as friction and hardness, influencing their performance and risk of injury. To understand the influence of surfaces on performance and injury risk, three studies were conducted to investigate tennis players’ perceptions and biomechanical responses during tennis-specific movements on different court surfaces. In study 1, tennis players perceptions of acrylic and clay courts were identified following a thematic inductive analysis of semi-structured interviews (n = 7) to develop of a series of visual analogue scales (VAS) to quantify perceptions during studies 2 and 3. Perceptions of predictability of the surface and players’ ability to slide and change direction emerged, in addition to anticipated perceptions of grip and hardness. Study 2 aimed to examine the influence of court surfaces and prior clay court experience on perceptions and biomechanical characteristics of tennis-specific skills.

The ITA and college tennis continue to be leaders in the sports world at this critical moment, working hard to demonstrate how tennis can return as a safe sport. In recent years striving together has been an overarching theme of the ITA… players, coaches and officials committing to fashion an environment whereby exceptional tennis technique, strategy, tactics and sportsmanship are combined with well-considered rules to create contests of “worthy rivals.” As the 2020-2021 competitive season gets under way, once again we want to ensure that tennis matches are conducted in a safe and fair manner and that attention to the health and welfare of all involved is coupled with qualities of character such as integrity, honesty and trustworthiness.

Hawk-Eye is a complex computer system used officially in numerous sports such as cricket, tennis, Gaelic football, badminton, hurling, and association football, to visually track the trajectory of the ball and display a record of its statistically most likely path as a moving image. 2 www.edutechlearners.com HISTORY Hawk-Eye was developed in the United Kingdom at Roke Manor Research Limited by Dr. Paul Hawkins. The system was originally implemented in 2001 for television purposes in cricket. Later, the technology was spun off into a separate company, Hawk-eye Innovations Ltd. The system was first used during a Test match between Pakistan and England at Lord’s Cricket Ground , on 21 April 2001.
