Thanks for all the replies. So far I've taken 8 months off and did physical therapy to regain strength. I miss the game terribly.
I've tried different braces with little to no improvement. The therapist suggested to not use them after my treatment.
I recently purchased a paddle from Engage. I told them of my injury and they selected a paddle to fit me and my playing style. Id love to find an instructor who had worked through tennis elbow themselves.

Good luck.

I'm a 52 yr old man rated at a 3.0. I have little racket experience. I know I was gripping my paddle too tightly and snapping my wrist. I need to learn to hit more from my shoulder.
I like the soft game and need to concentrate on that. My goal is to play every weekday and enter a tournament or 2.
