Tennis is a racket sport typically played between two players (singles) or two teams of two players each (doubles). The game is played on a rectangular court divided by a net. Players use rackets to strike a felt-covered rubber ball over the net, aiming to land it within the opponent’s side of the court. The objective is to score points by hitting the ball in such a way that the opponent is unable to return it effectively. Tennis is governed by a set of rules and scoring systems, with matches being played in sets and games. It is a popular recreational and competitive sport worldwide, with major tournaments such as Wimbledon, the US Open, the French Open, and the Australian Open being part of the Grand Slam events. Tennis requires physical agility, strategic thinking, and skillful technique.
