Tennis is a sport practiced with rackets and a small ball. They can play two individuals (one against one) or two couples (two people against the other two). The objective is to hit the ball so that it passes over the net that divides the court in half, trying to prevent the opponent from returning it.
It is believed that tennis emerged in the twelfth century in French territory. In those first versions of the game, the ball was hit with the hands. From the sixteenth century, they began to use rackets.
A match starts with a player's serve. The ball must hit the ball to bounce on a square that is diagonally on the side of the field that its rival occupies. From then on, both players have to pass the ball over the net in an alternative way. When a player fails to return it to the other side, his opponent adds a point.
The score in tennis is divided into points, games (games) and sets. By adding four points, you get a game. These points are counted successively in the following way: 15, 30, 40 and game. In case the competitors equal 40, they must win two consecutive points to keep the game. Then, when a player wins six games, he gets a set. The winner of the match is one who wins two or three sets, according to the characteristics of the tournament.
