Tennis is a sport usually played between two players
(singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles).
Each player uses a racket that is strung to strike a hollow rubber

ball which flies over a net into the opponent’s court. The object
of the game is to play the ball in such a way that the opponent
is not able to play a good return.

In this play, one player hits or serves the ball from a corner
of a marked out area called a court. The opposite player’s goal

is to return the ball, bouncing it no more than once in his own
court, aiming for the other player to not be able to hit it.
