Tennis graces the world of sport with its rich blend of tradition and innovation, dating back centuries while constantly evolving to meet the demands of the modern era. With profound sporting transformations in terms of equipment, methodology, training, injury prevention and data analysis, tennis has seen a constant increase in its performance levels across the world.
This research topic attempts to dissect the factors that influence this constant evolution, weaving a comprehensive narrative of tennis’ past, present and potential future. By delving into the complex nature of the sport through varied angles such as biomechanics, physiology, motor control and psychology, we strive to contribute to the pool of knowledge that guides the future direction of tennis.
We seek scientific contributions that cover, but are not limited to:
– The Technological Leap: How the advent of technology has catalyzed innovations in equipment, performance monitoring, data analysis, player training and injury prevention.
– Evolution of training and teaching: evaluation of traditional and cutting-edge methods, understanding their impact on performance and their alignment with the evolving needs of players.
– Role of competition structures: explore the transformations of competition formats, their strategic implications and their influence on the development and performance of players.
– Socio-economic aspects: examine economic dynamics, including player financing, tennis equipment market growth and the economic impact of major tennis events.
– Injury Mechanisms and Preventive Strategies: Investigate common injury patterns, evaluate preventative measures, and plan improved safeguarding approaches.
– Mental Strength: The less visible aspects such as stress, resilience, motivation and the impact of these psychological elements on player performance.
– Exploring women in tennis: an analysis of the impact and development of women in tennis, including challenges, progression and representation.
– Green Tennis: Discuss the environmental footprint of sport and the potential for sustainable practices in the world of tennis.
In orchestrating this collection, we aim to shine a light on the complexities and challenges of tennis, providing information that could inspire further policy, practice and research, thereby pushing the boundaries of this great sport into the future.
Keywords: tennis, data analysis, socio-economic, mental, green tennis, women in tennis
Important note: All contributions to this research topic must fall within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more appropriate section or journal at any stage of peer review.
