Résumé

Objectives: To compare incidence rates of lower limb muscle injuries (LLMIs) and hamstring muscle injuries (HMIs) in 100 m, 200 m and 400 m sprints disciplines between finals, semi-finals and heats of international athletics championships. Design: Prospective total population study. Methods: We analysed in-competition LLMIs and HMIs of female and male athletes during eight championships between 2009 and 2022. Results: LLMI and HMI incidence rates in 100 m finals were significantly higher than in heats and semi-finals for female and male athletes. HMI incidence rates were significantly higher in 200 m finals than heats and semifinals for male athletes. Conclusions: LLMI and HMI risk was higher in finals compared to previous rounds during international athletics championships.
