Tennis Elbow is a series of tennisvideo games developed by France-based firm Mana Games. Its first version was released in 1996[1] and as of May 2015 it is currently on its 2013 version, available for Windows, Mac & Linux platforms.
The game is simulation oriented, and is often seen as being the one offering the most realistic tennis experience in term of rallies[2] and tennis sensations.[3]
The most noticeable particularity of its gameplay is that the users have to hold down the strike button till their player actually strikes the ball, unlike most other tennis games that require the users to release the strike button earlier.[4]
After more than 2 years spent in Steam Greenlight,[5] the 2013 version finally got released on Steam on March 13, 2015.[6]
The game is regularly updated and as of July 2018 has seen 10 major updates for the 2013 edition.

May 18, 2016 Created by and for tennis fans, Tennis Elbow 2013 is a tennis simulation with an easy and intuitive learning curve, but with exceptional gameplay depth. In this tennis game, you'll have to show all your tactical skills, use an iron mind and quick reflexes, as well as a sharp eye to guess the ball trajectories, all of this to choose your next. Mar 13, 2015 Hi Guys, I thought it might be a good idea to have a thread where we can get tips and hints for improving our game. I'll get it started with a question about serving. I just got spanked 6-0 in my first set and yes, there is an achievement for that. Can someone please help me out with how to control your serve? I was able to serve without a problem but, I can't seem to figure out how to.
