Tennis is a sport played between two individuals (singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles), where players use a racket to hit a ball over a net and into the opponent’s court. The objective is to score points by making the ball land in the designated areas of the opponent’s side, thereby preventing the opponent from successfully returning the ball.
The game is played on various surfaces, including grass, clay, and hard courts, each affecting the ball’s speed and bounce. Tennis matches are governed by a set of rules, including scoring systems that involve terms like “love,” “deuce,” and “advantage.” Players aim to win sets and matches, with professional play often culminating in tournaments sanctioned by organizations like the ATP and WTA.
Tennis is recognized for its mixed-gender play possibilities, with both men and women competing at various levels and events. The sport emphasizes agility, precision, stamina, and tactical skill, making it both physically demanding and strategically complex. Popular tournaments include the Grand Slams, such as Wimbledon, the US Open, the French Open, and the Australian Open, drawing significant global interest and viewership.
