What happens if a tennis ball becomes stuck in the racket? I was playing tennis with my sister, and served to her. Improbably (and yet I promise it happened), she swung off target, and ended up hitting the ball just below the head of the racket, causing the tennis ball to become wedged into the racket, where it stayed. We counted it as a let, but we were honestly unsure how to score such a freakish incident. What should we have done?

Why is a tennis spectator not allowed to keep a tennis ball after he catches it during a smash or an out? Unlike in baseball, a spectator is allowed to keep a caught ball. In tennis tournaments, I've seen some tennis officials approach the person who caught the ball and ask him to throw it to the ball boys below (when there isn't any rally in play), or to just hand it over to the tennis official. It's as if the spectator is obliged to return the ball. Please provide references. If there is an official rule associated with this, kindly state it.

Which goes farther, a baseball or a tennis ball when hit earnestly by a bat? Does a tennis ball absorb enough of the impact of the hit from a bat (wooden or metal) that it would not go as far as a baseball? That's my brother's argument, but my memories from childhood wants to convince me that a tennis ball would outdistance a baseball... or that maybe up to a certain point the tennis ball would outdistance the baseball, but after then the tennis ball would succumb to wind resistance? But my brother and his friend want to favor the baseball, regardless - something I'm quite reluctant to do... Thoughts?

Does anyone know about a tennis ball on a string used in tennis training? Hi, I have a question about a tennis training ball on a string I once saw. I saw a kid playing tennis by himself with a ball that was attached to a long elastic string and every time he hit it it would bounce right back to him. It looked really cool. The whole thing was just sitting on the ground, with long string and a ball. I was wondering if anyone ever saw this or has one at home and could tell me where can I buy it and what is the exact name for it?? Thank you.
