| Popis: | Golf is a sport that can be played by athletes of all ages, both males and females, and by various income earners. There have been various articles and book chapters looking at injuries in general and specific to golf. Most golf injuries are related to overuse syndromes, but can result from poor swing mechanics, poor core stability and strength, improper warm-up, and striking foreign objects. Injuries can be acute or chronic. When caring for golfers, it is important to understand the golf swing, swing biomechanics, and injuries both general and specific to golfers. In this chapter, we will review the swing and discuss a variety of injuries that can occur as well as the respective management of each injury. |
