One of the most common elbow conditions is tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis. It is a common condition. Anyone who uses their upper extremities for a significant amount of activity, such as players of other racquet sports, golfers, is susceptible to this condition. It usually resolves by itself if we do nothing.

I had had an incident where I was surfing and it was relatively routine, I fell off my surfboard, you know, it was probably two-meter green face waves, nothing to be concerned about. As I'm getting churned underwater, I feel a snap in my right elbow, and at that point, I knew I needed to make my way back to the shore and kind of figure out what had gone on. I figured when I got home, I need to go ahead and take care of it immediately.
