Why does it take so long in tennis for any trainer, doctor, or medical personnel to show up? It feels like it takes an eternity compared to other sports.

Tennisplayer: Is crying, screaming and clearly in pain. Audience: *we now do the clap*

*Player nearly dies and is in massive pain* Crowd: *Clap* *Clap* *Clap*

Some of these are debatable if they are "shocking" or not. But Benneteau twisting his ankle is without a doubt shocking. It hurts just seeing that replay.

Bennetau's ankle twisting is so painful to watch, since i've twisted my ankle once.

The injury doesn't hurt the most but for a tennis player leaving a match in progress hurts the most😱

Dimitrov is always so compassionate, literally will jump over nets to make sure opponent is alright top man!

One thing that does come across in these clips is that medical personnel in pro tennis are extremely slow to react to a player getting injured. Most clips have the other player or the ball boy/girl standing staring at the player for a minute or two before anyone else thinks it might be a good idea to react.

I suspect that Mikhail Youzhny's one will never get old.

First set won, 5-2 in the second. Still lose the match. It breaks my heart. Brown in tears😭

At first I thought Bennatau was overreacting.. then I saw the replay...shocking!! I truly understood his pain at that moment.

Anything mildly interesting happens on tour... TennisTv with it's top 10 video: It's free real estate

3:26 : Are you serious?!?! His foot did a 180 on itself. He can't continue.

*Spoiler Alert* All of these players made a full recovery!

Denis "Sniper" Shapovalov deserved a honorable mention in my opinion.

Benneteau didn't only sprain his ankle in that clip. He also completely tore one ligament and damaged another in the process. Plus he also fractured his elbow and sprained his wrist in the fall ! No wonder he was screaming in pain... :(

Out of all tennis players, I think Monica Seles will forever have top spot, what with getting stabbed and all. But Benneteau's ankle actually looks more painful, my god.

3:11 zverev suffered almost the exact same injury yesterday in the french open. he shuffuled to his right to reach for the ball, and ended up twisting his ankle :((

Sorry....you can't feel sorry for Youzhny at all. That was not an accident. He intentionally injured himself.

Youzhny and safin are such badass Russians. They’re like “the racket felt more pain than I did” 😂 youzhny especially was insane. That man was crazy! In an awesome way tho lol

Guess Monica Seles being attacked at court side isn't technically an on court injury, but still that's a hell of a lot more shocking than ANY of these!

I remember watching the Youzhny/Almagro match live. If memory serves, Youzhny then hit a second ball out of the court in anger but the umpire declined to give him a point penalty (presumably thinking he'd suffered enough for one night) and Almagro complained so much that he received a warning instead. It was about 2am local time and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

I love the fact that 40% of the injuries are from a player coming up with a novel way of hitting themselves in the face with their racket.

I've done Benneteau's one a couple of times, once really badly just stepping off a raised legde. Tore a bunch of ligaments and tendons across the top of my foot in the process and couldn't put weight on it for a week, couldn't walk without limping for probably a month. Doctor took one look at it when I turned up at A&E and said he wouldn't be surprised if it was broken. Was lucky that it wasn't. Watching Benneteau there makes me absolutely recoil, I know how bad that can be, absolute respect for trying to carry on, when I did it I couldn't find the will to even try to stand up.

wow. Benetteau's injury was difficult to watch. and fair play to Dimitrov. I have seen various instances where an opponent is hurt, or a ballkid got hurt, and he's been really kind.

i felt the pain for him in number eight

Leg cramps are no joke. They are so painful.

The benneteau injury was disappointing cause juan monaco got injured the same way cause of the holes in the court. Djokovic and Nadal spoke so badly of the blue courts of madrid but never said anything on the fact that the monte carlo courts had holes in them that caused 2 injuries.

7:11 Murray looks like he's in Agassi =)))))))

Murray is an absolute machine! he's had hip surgery with a metal rod inserted into the femur and coating the joint in metal. Glad he's back on stage, it's sad to see he may never be at his best but he never gives up.

safin was such a badass. Getting a cut and still winning a watch. Getting to no. 1 too. Great player.

Julien's one was horrendous.

#8 happened to me when I was descending from a mountain. Took me 2h to get to the bottom and I was in agony.

I remember Roddick at Queens. One second he was OK , next second he slipped, then next he injured his foot.

I realized whoever made this list hasn't seen the "SHOCKING" ones from the 90s.

Anything at all: *happens* The crowd: *ah yes a great time to clap*

And Michael Stich broke his ankle on court, that was extremely painful 😱

For those who don’t know, the ones that look questionable, mostly where the player just falls over, is just because of cramps. I’ve personally had those before during a match and I’ve fallen over, it’s truely uncontrollable. And it’s because these guys plays huge and long games, with players who get further in the draw will play consecutively over a week

No.8 was really scary for me😰 Coz the same i experience and it's not ok till now been over 3 months

The injury to Benneteau is very similar to the one Zverev just got against Nadal at the French Open. That clay is a dangerous, slippery surface.

Crowd: *"Lets heal him by slapping our extremities together repeatedly."*

0:50 breaks my heart 😞

Its really painful to get hit with a tennis ball, I once got hit by my brother, and that made my other eye cry from the momentum, it took a while to adjust to the light

Brown 7-6 and 5-2 up getting an injury, thats rough

I really hope everyone here recovers/recovered ok and was able to continue their dreams. And to the guy who hit himself on purpose i hope he got some serious counselling/mental health help and new coping mechanisms for stress

Player:**gets injured** The closed:**clapping and cheering**

12:20 me after the 2nd point in a match

Have you seen Monica getting STABBED in COURT!!

You can see in every injury there were always one thing is sportsmanship who ever the tennis player opponent when the opponent got injured they will always go help the opponent.

Some of these were as shocking as Peppa Pig. I was more shocked about the amount of adverts

Benneteau one is heart breaking. And Murray back in 2005 really didn't have much on him at all. He was so not fit enough to play tennis bodily wise.

Graphite racquets are hard , I had a few accident like that too , painful 😥

Bennetau straight up looked like he was dying I can’t imagine how painful that is

This was uploaded on my birthday. March 13. Thanks for the upload. It happens when tennis players get injured in their lives during the game. Things happen here sometimes in the world. Once or three times in every month during the tennis season. I’m Pisces reacting to this video, those injuries were tough to recover. What I just saw a tennis player twisted that ankle so fast, that it would end a player’s career. Oof. 😑

Pls update this: Zverev number 1

Marat Safin was my favourite player back in the day... also I was a teenager and he was so dreamy 😍 ✨️

No. 8 looked so scary!

Oh man, the number 7 looked painful 👀

10:52 - I used to slap myself in the face as a diver at 14-15 in high school every single time that I didn’t do a dive well and this reminds me of that. The new swim/dive team coach that came in my sophomore year was amazing and explained that nobody can be perfect at all times and to give myself grace when I messed up. He was able to get through to me after 2 years of me “punishing” myself for “not preforming well enough”. I started showing myself grace and stopped slapping myself after messing up and even eventually found humor in messing up during practice, which was great! He would always say before the major State competitions that no matter the outcome, he was incredibly proud of me. That was what I needed to hear in that time and it left a lasting impact on me.

I still have a skid mark on my arm from a hard court from over 35 years ago! As I was getting up, blood gushing down my arm, I still remember the voice of a player on a different court yelling “hey, you two calm down over there!”

Those dirt courts are nasty! I've ripped up an ankle just playing on a loose gravel basketball court and MAN DO I FEEL EVERY SECOND of that name pain!

No 2 is relatable I have done that and it hurts hitting you head with your racket trying to stay in the point

I was expecting to see Edmund's and Dimitrov jumping the net and running to help him out

Lol youzhny nearly gave himself a concussion and then asking the refs for a towel just Russian I guess

So basically tennis is an extremely safe sport LOL

What would happen if both players got injured and couldn't continue?

Julien Benneteau's twist and fall was genuinely painful to watch! Anyone who has ever torn a ligament in the ankle or leg will know just how incredibly painful it is - Can be on a par with breaking a bone. That unmade clay surface seems pretty lethal!

I can't believe that ATP doesn't make it mandatory to have wheelchairs for emergencies at every court ! What a shame! Weirdos

I was expecting Nicolas Almagro injury against Del Potro.

Goffin was never the same after that. He was on fire almost winning a Master 1000, but now...

3:10 I literally screamed out loud my damn dog hopped up it was pure pandemonium !

Incredible-a Murray match where he isn't the one rolling round on the floor.

Football players : Hold my beer darling

Murray 2005, good lord he is still winning matches. Jesus he played with some massive heart even when he was super young. I love that guy

Regarding Bennetau's ankle twist, was that partially because of the shoes? It seems to me that the shoes were not sliding when they should have started to slide. I would like to hear your comments.

This wouldn't be in this video because it happened at Wimbledon but I remember one time, Tommy Haas served during a warm up and he slipped on a ball. His ankle swelled up like a freaking balloon.

When i had the last moment of a crazy backpain (turned out to be 2 hernietec discs) it was just like Kuhn in the video. I couldn't scream speak or anything, too much pain

The racquet got revenge on Marat Safin for racquet abuse.

I'm sorry, but 8:58 is straight up hilarious (knowing that he was perfectly fine afterward). Straight up Tom Hanks physical comedy...

what i hate in this sport is the medic team so slow in helping the players

1:54 wowwwwwww idk if i ever saw that scoreline ..... wtf O.O freaking sad

Who is here after Zverev twisted his ankle in RG semifinal ?

8:58 i couldnt help but laugh at the way he fell, it just looks so comical

That Safin one was incredible since he still managed to won the match.

Watching Mahut playing singles was perhaps the most disruptive thing on this video 😅

Hang on, Benneteau does his ankle...and still tries to carry on?! Ankle-twisting was practically a hobby of mine as a kid, did both about 10 times each, and every single time I've thought I'd never walk properly again. Couldn't watch the snap itself here, I just know how it feels, you get that sickness in your stomach and the pain is unlike any other - not necessarily a worse pain, but a much different kind of pain. I can't believe he carried on. If anyone asks how much players love the sport, show them that. That's incredible.

Tennis tv said: *we like pain* 🔥👄🔥

So disappointed number one wasn't the teenage girl who was literally stabbed in the back in a German match in the 90's. The guy who stabbed her was trying to secure the position of her opponent as number one, he also didn't get any jail time for stabbing a teenager and attempting to do it a second time before being stopped by the crowd. Her bending over last second saved her from becoming paralyzed by a centimeter or two. That should be the most shocking one in my opinion.

I love tennis

watching Murray's perseverance was inspirational 👏

Lamentável, o atleta ali, morrendo de dor e nenhum médico entra pra socorrer! Fala sério! Uma vergonha isso!

I suddenly realize how lucky I was not getting hurt after all those years of play.

That clay slide injury was weird, its was like he tripped over a poorly maintained line except he wasnt going through a line...

I guarantee this video will go viral

12:18 what happened to Kuhn after that? what happened? he looks in a lot of pain.

Bennetau carried on with his body literally in shambles. What a guy

why were those boxes at the back of the court in the first place on the first video, ive played almost 100 tennis matches inside and ive never seen those

‘Murray looks like he’s in Agassi, Johansons down with him’

The worst one to watch was on the WTA. Wimbledon, Bethany Mattek-Sands knee injury vs Cirstea I think it was a second or third round match.

It's very sad !😭
