AB Background: Groin injuries are some of the most common injuries tennis playerssuffer. Several factors (e.g., post-match decrease in hip adductor (ADD) strength)have been proposed as possible mechanisms for increasing the incidence of this typeof injury. However, the risk factors of developing groin injuries after a tennis matchhave not yet been delineated.Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of tennis match-play onisometric ADD and abductor (ABD) strength and passive hip range of motion(ROM).Methods: Twenty-six male tennis players (20.30 ± 4.98 years) took part in this study.Participants completed an evaluation of strength and flexibility hip measurementsbefore and after a simulated tennis match. Dominant and non-dominant passive hipROM, ADD and ABD isometric strength, and the ADD/ABD strength ratio weremeasured before and immediately post-match. A global positioning system (GPS)and a session rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were used to assess the locomotivedemands and internal match load.Results: Isometric dominant ADD strength (17.8%, p ≤ 0.01) and ADD/ABDstrength ratio (11.6%, p = 0.04) were lower post-match compared to the pre-matchvalues. No between-limbs differences were observed for isometric ADD strength,ABD strength, and passive hip ROM tests. RPE showed an expected increase betweenpre- vs. post-match (pre- vs. post-warming-up, 3.42 ± 2.08 vs. 5.62 ± 2.29, p < 0.01).In addition, a significant relationship between ADD strength and the volume oftennis practice per week was found, stablishing that tennis players with lower volume of training per week suffered a reduction in ADD strength in their dominant limbafter match-play (r = 0.420, p = 0.04).Conclusion: The assessment of ADD strength and the ADD/ABD strength ratio inthe dominant limb may be considered a post-match tool that can be used to identifyplayers who require rest and additional recovery strategies before competing again.
