Methods: 31 patients with shoulder joint injury caused by the receiving ball in three hospitals were selected from 2010-2015. MRI was used if X-ray cannot confirm the result. The diagnosis was performed by arthroscopy for serious rotator cuff injury. The Zlatkin classification of MRI was used as the diagnostic criterion.

Results: In the rotator cuff injury, the first level was the largest, the second level was less, and the third level only had 3 cases. Further analysis of the injury showed that the receiving injury of tennis players was mainly caused by inadequate preparation activities.
