All court tennis

Clay court

A Clay court, it is made from crashed shale, stones or bricks. At The Roland Garros they use clay courts to be unique in Grand Slam titles. In female category Justine Henin is the most successful player in clay court, Male category Rafael Nadal is the most successful player. He wins 81 clay court wins between April 2005 and May 2007. This clay court is most traditional way and cheaper way of making a tennis court. But the maintain cost of a clay court is high, because Clay courts need to be rolled to preserve the flatness and its water content must be balanced. Clay courts favor the full western grip for more topspin. Clay courts are slow because ball bounces high and slow. So clay courts heavily favor baseliners who are consistent and are generally more defensive. Drop shot is one of more powerful weapon in clay court.

Grass court

Grass courts are made of rye grass in different compositions depending on the tournament. As a example Wimbledon 100% rye grass, in grass courts the maintain cost is more higher than hard court and clay court. The grass court should be reseeded every year. Grass courts are more common in England. Because the court often slippery the ball often skids and bounces low, rarely bounces rising above the knee height. As these cases the players must reach the ball faster, so the power is rewarded on grass. Most grass courts heavily favor serve and volley players. Wimbledon is the most prestigious grass tournament. There are seven outstanding players in the grass Venus Williams, Roger Federer, Pete Sampras, Steffi Garf, Martina Navratilova, Bjorn Brog and Billie Jean King.

Hard court

Hard courts usually made out of asphalt, in these courts fast hard hitting players have a sight advantage. Hard courts are faster than clay courts but slower than grass courts. Depending the amount of sand added to the surface the ball fast can vary. U.S. opens (acrylic) and Australian opens (Synthetic) are the Grand slam titles playing @ the hard court. Main different between acrylic and synthetic is level of hardness. This courts can players cause for injuries.

Tennis Rules (Easy to learn Tennis)

Rule1: Receiver has to stand opposite side and the cross court from the server. The one who delivers the ball first called server. The one who face the ball called receiver.

Rule2: Who serve first, Receive, chooses the side or give this choice to the opponent is decided by the toss of coin or racket. If some one won the toss and he decide to serve or receive then the opponent get the chance to select the side to start.

Rule3: When playing single match the server should stand within the boundaries of single side line and center line also behind the base line. When playing double server should stand within center line and double side line. Also if total games they play equal to odd number then they have to change their sides.

Rule4: The server should not serve before the receiver is ready. The server should have serve to the opponent’s cross court service box. If receiver plays the shot before ball bounce on the service area server get a point. If server misses his target twice a time he/she lost a point. If the ball hit the net & goes to the correct service box he get another service. If service not goes to the correct service box we called it as “fault”.

Rule5: when we consider about scoring, the server’s score always call first. If server took a point his score id 15.opponent is “love” then the points count 15,30,40 if some one reaches 40 he/she wins the game. If the score is 40-40 then it called “deuce”. Then one must win by two points. “Advantage in” means if server takes one point he/she win. “Advantage out” means if receiver wins next point he/she win that game.

Rule6: Service should have to change game by game. The one who win 6 games win the set and one who win 2 sets win the match. If the game score is 6-6 then we have to go to the “tie break”. In tie break point count by one’s the one who win 7 points win the set. If tie break also equal the one who win the tie break by 2 win the set.

Rule7: If ball goes out side, ball hits the net and drop on his court, racket/player touches the net, racket drops, hit the ball in the surroundings, ball touch his partner’s body the player who hit the ball loose a point.

Rule8: The “let” called if the ball rolls on the court or distraction of besides the players in the court. The ball land on line is good also if balls hit the net and go to the opponent court also good.

Rule9. If players serve out of turn or serve to the wrong person or court, the point or game will stand and order will be resumed following the point or game
