The aims were to I. assess the differences in unforced errors between men's and women's professional padel players, II. assess the differences in unforced errors between winners and losers of the set in professional padel players, III. analyse the evolution of unforced errors in professional padel. To do this, the unforced errors (which are provided by World Padel Tour (WPT)) were collected from 2,567 sets (1,476 men's sets and 1,091 women's sets) corresponding to matches from the final draw (round of 32, round of 16, quarterfinals, semi-finals and finals) of tournaments on the WPT men's and women's circuits during 2016 to 2022 seasons, which are available on the WPT YouTube channel and on the WPT TV website. The results with respect to the first aim indicate that the number of unforced errors was higher in women's padel than in men's, regardless of the set number, tournament round, season and court. With respect to the second aim, not committing unforced errors is a fundamental factor in professional padel to win the sets. Finally, regarding the third aim, the number of unforced errors decreased as the seasons progressed; therefore, to win, players should not only have to pass the ball without missing, but they might have to hit winners or generate forced errors of the opponent.
一、评估男子和女子职业壁球运动员非受迫性失误的差异；二、评估职业壁球运动员中一盘比赛的胜者和败者之间非受迫性失误的差异；三、分析职业壁球中非受迫性失误的演变情况。为此，从2016年至2022赛季世界壁球巡回赛（WPT）男子和女子巡回赛赛事决赛抽签（32强赛、16强赛、四分之一决赛、半决赛和决赛）的比赛对应的2567盘比赛（1476盘男子比赛和1091盘女子比赛）中收集了非受迫性失误（由WPT提供），这些比赛视频可在WPT YouTube频道和WPT电视网站上获取。关于第一个目的的结果表明，无论盘数、比赛轮次、赛季和场地如何，女子壁球的非受迫性失误数量都高于男子。关于第二个目的，不出现非受迫性失误是职业壁球中赢得一盘比赛的一个基本因素。最后，关于第三个目的，随着赛季的推进，非受迫性失误的数量有所减少；因此，为了获胜，球员不仅必须传球而不失误，而且可能还必须打出致胜球或制造对手的受迫性失误。
