BACKGROUND 1.1 Madrid Madrid is a city with a history that is exceedingly rich in culture. It is culturally linked to Latin American countries, as well as an important member of the European Union. The Spanish capital is a beautiful and vibrant city that exudes social life. Madrid is the marketplace of Spain, because all of the very best products from the rest of the country frequently arrive to shops and markets all over the city almost instantaneously. The capital is replete with bars, cafes, and restaurants where its denizens and visitors alike can enjoy delicious, highly diverse Mediterranean cuisine. The immense number of culinary options that are available makes Madrid the best European city in which to dine. Visitors who so choose are conveniently able to travel less than one hour from the city center to enjoy a hiking excursion in the mountains that surround Madrid. Ski fans can likewise travel just several miles to Navacerrada o Valdesqui to hit the slopes. Madrid is famous for its art and culture, with some of the most well-known and fantastic museums and art galleries such as the Prado Museum, which is currently considered the largest in the world. After a full day of study or work, Madrid offers a nightlife full of theaters, cafes, great nightclubs, and other charming spots to catch many types of live music, as well as the best shows in the country. 5 1.2 Tennis in Spain The best tennis players, trained by the best clubs and high-performance academies on the entire planet come from Spain. Players on professional and amateur levels within the country have set the bar exceptionally high for the rest of the world. “The Spanish Academyl” of tennis truly is the ideal way for amateur players to take their game to a professional level. There are high-performance schools all over Spain that help players develop into some of the best professional tennis players — players who ultimately go on to compete at the best-known international tournaments. Rafael Nadal, for example, has become the biggest tennis star of the century, and will be an inspiration for future players for the foreseeable future — as have Feliciano López, Roberto Bautista, Fernando Verdasco, Albert Ramos, Carreño Busta, Garibiñe Muguruza, Carla Suárez, Sara Sorribes, and many more. Spain is the home of the best tennis coaches in the sport. A multitude of amateur and professional competitions and tournaments for children, as well as teens of all ages offer many opportunities for all who play. Players who are trained in Spain go on to become some of the most sought-after athletes in the entire sport. Some of the best teams, the best trainers, and most highly-qualified and best-trained referees are found in Spain. A high percentage of the most impressive international competitors come from the country. The great success of Spanish tennis players is also undoubtedly attributable to their truly exceptional level of play, which has in turn resulted to Spaniards having raised every single Grand Slam trophy in existence. That same inspirational, Spanish winning spirit that is currently observable all over the world stage is also thoroughly present even at an amateur level throughout Spain. 6 2.

    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.

Ibáñez Training Optimization and Sport Performance Research Group (GOERD), Sport Science Faculty, University of Extremadura, 10005 Caceres, Spain; [email protected] (J.F.-C.); [email protected] (J.G.-R.); [email protected] (S.J.I.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-6-7669-5073 Received: 1 May 2020; Accepted: 3 June 2020; Published: 6 June 2020 Abstract: Studies that analyze the actions carried out by paddle tennis players during the point are scarce. The present investigation characterizes every action in which a stroke by a pair in a defensive position sends the ball over the position of a pair in an offensive position. It is a descriptive and observational study of quantitative methodology. The sample consisted of 1324 actions, statistical analysis units, from the women’s circuit in the 2018 World Padel Tour (WPT) season. For this study, various situational, dependent, and independent variables were analyzed. The results showed the number of times the categories of each variable occurred, as well as the significant relationships between the independent variable kind of hit and the dependent variables “actions that facilitate the possible change of position” (AFPCP) and “incidences in the game” (IG). The conclusion is that the lob is the most effective kind of hit (CSR = 4.9) to achieve the offensive position (CSR = 11.4), even if the point does not finish (CSR = 5.8), leading to more position exchanges during the same point in the AFPCP.

Michael Eckl, Philipp Kornfeind and Arnold Baca A B C Department of Biomechanics, Kinesiology and Applied Computer Science, ZSU, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria The purpose of this study was to compare two different playing surfaces in tennis – clay vs hard-court (OptiCourt) – in order get more insight on the influence of the effect of surface on load. Eight male tennis players performed two types of tennis specific motions. Inside plantar pressure was measured for the right foot during these movements. Higher maximum forces could be observed for the OptiCourt for the baseline D play. In more detail, maximum force, peak and mean pressure were higher for the heel region on the hard-court. Higher values were found on clay for the hallux and lesser toe Figure 3: A) T-Scan® data of MOM were we can analyse the centre of foces howing equilibrium region.
