All tournaments apart from the 4 major competitions (the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open) were included for the period 2001-2012 for men and women.

Women left and were injured significantly more than men. Women mainly left because of thigh injuries, whereas men left mainly because of back injuries.
