Ask you likely to suffer injury than men (de- pending on the sport). For instance, female athletes are more prone to knee injuries such as "runner's knee" (patellofemoral pain syn- drome) and meniscal (cartilage) de- generation, as well as rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), which helps stabilize the knee joint. The reason for women's greater likelihood of sustaining sports- related knee injury rests largely with smaller muscles (compared with men) supporting their knees and more lax ligaments. Women also have wider pelvises than men, and their thigh bones angle in more sharply from hip to knee, rendering their knees less stable.
