Tennis

Tennis is a sport that people usually play individually against a single opponent or between two teams of two players each . Each player uses a racquet that is strung with cord to strike a hollow rubber ball covered with felt over or around a net and 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.
