| Research Abstract |
In the present study, we investigated the brain mechanism in the anticipation of receiving serve in tennis. We employed the neuroimaging technology to visualize brain activities related to anticipation, and used computer graphics to establish virtual environment of tennis serve. The analysis using fMRI and CG revealed that the insular cortex is a key region to anticipate directions of tennis service, and paying attention to a racket just before ball impact is crucial to produce better anticipatory performance in receiving serve in tennis.
