Some tennis terms
Here are some useful definitions for your virtual reality tennis match:
A serve is the starting shot of each point, where the player tosses the ball into the air and hits it to send it into the opponent’s side of the court.
A backhand refers to a shot made with the back face of the racket, often used to hit the ball with the non-dominant hand.
A forehand is hit with the front face of the racket, usually on the dominant hand’s side.
A let is a serve that touches the net but still lands in the correct service box. In this case, the serve is retaken.
A set refers to a series of games (usually 6) that a player must win with a 2-game lead. If the two players are tied at 5-5, one must win 7-5. If the score reaches 6-6, a tiebreak game is played.
The tiebreak is a decisive game played when the players are tied at 6-6 in a set. The players then continue until one reaches 7 points with a 2-point lead.

In the free version of Match Point Tennis, the training takes place on 3 different types of courts:
For singles matches, you can play in Paris or in Dubai.
For other locations (Arizona, Singapore, Amsterdam, etc.), you’ll need to purchase the pro version of the app.
