The correlation of fingerprint dermatoglyphics with sensomotor, speed and speed-powered abilities of 63 best young (11–19 y.o., male) tennis players and juniors of Russia of various qualifications is studied. It is shown that tennis players of different qualification refer to different phenotypes. Among tennis players of Masters of Sports LW phenotype (45%) most often meets, ALW phe-notype (25%) is slightly rarer and AL and WL phenotypes (on 15%) are even rarer. Among the Candidates in Master of Sports the most often is the phenotype LW (40%), then – phenotype WL (30%), and to a lesser extent the phenotypes AL and ALW occur (20 and 10% respectively). Among tennis players of the second category the phenotypes LW, WL and AL (by 33.3%) are equally found. Among the athletes of the first category the more common is a pheno-type ALW (44%), then – phenotype WL (28%), 10L and LW (by 14%). Significant differences in the dermatoglyphics indicators between sportsmen of different qualification were found only in complex patterns (S). It was found that this type of pattern prevails among tennis players of lower qualification. The strongest young sportsmen of high qualification in almost all speed-power parame-ters surpass the less-skilled. Besides, the analysis of interrelation of dermatoglyphics and high-speed and power abilities at tennis players of different qualification allow considering that for selection in tennis it is expedient beforehand to conduct morphogenetic research, to recommend and to give preference to children with the phenotypes AL, LW and S (the composite patterns). At the same time, we would like to note that in spite of the fact that our researches cap-tured the young tennis players strongest in Russia; nevertheless, the obtained data do not give yet the grounds to absolutize results as we did not manage to survey the strongest adult tennis play-ers of the world, unfortunately. We did not yet manage to find these data in the world literature.
