Tennis

Tennis is a racket sport played between either two players (singles) or two teams of two players each (doubles). The game involves using a stringed racket to hit a ball over a net onto the opponent’s court. The objective is to score points by landing the ball in the opponent’s designated area, where they are unable to return it successfully. Tennis is played on various surfaces including grass, clay, and hard courts, each affecting the game’s pace and strategy. The sport is governed by specific rules and scoring systems, typically involving games, sets, and matches. It is widely popular globally, with numerous professional tournaments such as the Grand Slam events: the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.
