When do you replay a point in tennis? The answer may depend on the tournament, but generally, you’ll replay a point if the ball hits the net cord, if a player is hindered by a ball bouncing into their court from another court, or if interference occurs.
When the ball hits the ground in the other player’s court
In tennis, the ball can hit the ground multiple times before the point is over. If the ball hits the ground in your court, and you hit it into the other player’s court, they can choose to replay the point.
When the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court
If the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court, it is called a let and the point is played again.
When the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court and the other player hits it before it bounces
If the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court and the other player hits it before it bounces, then you replay the point.
When the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court and the other player doesn’t hit it before it bounces
When the ball hits the net and goes over into the other player’s court and the other player doesn’t hit it before it bounces, the point is replayed.
