Social-distancing versions of Tennis? 10 Creative Ways To Play Tennis At Home!

10 Creative Ways To Tennis At Home

The year started with the promise of some brilliant tennis. Whether you look forward to watching the nail-biting grand slams, winning that cross-club league, or simply hitting the court for a friendly tennis sesh with your friends, your plans no longer stand. But, like the rest of the world, we’ve adapted. From online pro tournaments, to creative ways to play tennis at home, the tennis world has found ways to incorporate the sport we love so much, into our new normal. Roger is volleying off walls, and Rafa’s sofas are his new net.

Tennis during Quarantine:

Here at Tennis Express, we asked the tennis community to share with us their ingenious ways of playing tennis during quarantine. Using the hashtags #TennisAtHome and #TennisExpress, the online world of tennis players got to work, and inspired all of us with their spirit! Here are our favorite 10:

1. This guy combined his love of naps with his love for tennis to get through quarantine!
