Hello all,

I'm not a physician but I was a sports therapist and acupuncturist in the
past and now work with players as a "mental" or peak performance coach and I
believe that club players have more incidence of tennis elbow due to the
difference in conditioning and in technique. It's been my experience that
players with less than ideal technique or higher amounts of muscle tension in
the are, shoulder and hands may be more prone to what is commonly called
tennis elbow.
