Comparison of the game structure and point ending during Grand Slam women's doubles tennis

“…With regards to the activity profile in men's doubles, it has been observed that the duration of points (DR) is shorter than in singles. 4 However, this is not the case in women's doubles, where no differences have been found as compared to the men's singles in terms of DR. 20 The work-rest ratio (W:R) also shows lower values in doubles than in singles. 2 The rest time between points (RTP) is higher in women's doubles than in the singles game, the effective playing time (EPT) is shorter in women's doubles as compared to the singles game, and the rest time (RT) is longer in women's doubles.…”

“…Previous research that have studied doubles have analysed aspects such as the tactics used by the teams, 3,5,[10][11][12] the communication between team members, 6,13 the players' coordination, 14 scoring systems, 15 gender differences, 16 the best doubles players, 1 the structure of the game and the way in which points are finished, 4 the time characteristics according to the experience of the teams, 2 the performance of the serve, 17,18 the volley positions 19 and the activity profile in women's doubles tennis. 20 The specific characteristics of the doubles game presented above imply that the demands of the game are substantially different from those of the singles matches. With regards to the activity profile in men's doubles, it has been observed that the duration of points (DR) is shorter than in singles.…”

“…2 The rest time between points (RTP) is higher in women's doubles than in the singles game, the effective playing time (EPT) is shorter in women's doubles as compared to the singles game, and the rest time (RT) is longer in women's doubles. 20 In terms of structural characteristics, less sets, less points per match (PM) and less points per game (PG) are played in men's doubles than in singles, although more games are played per set. 4 Regarding the differences between men's and women's doubles at professional level, it has been shown that the W: R is slightly lower in women's doubles than in men's doubles, the total match time (TMT) in women's doubles on hard and clay courts is slightly longer than in men's doubles on hard courts, and shorter on grass.…”
