Tennis

Tennis is a racket sport that can be played individually against a single opponent (singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles). Players use a strung racket to hit a hollow rubber ball covered with felt over a net and into the opponent’s court. The objective is to hit the ball in such a way that the opponent cannot make a valid return. The game is played on various surfaces, including grass, clay, and hard courts, each of which affects the speed and style of play.
