Who the HELL invented ball games. . .of every sort and variety??? Geezus: golf, basketball, tennis, ping pong, foot ball, soccer, rugby. . .don’t people have anything better to do? Like watching rain/snow fall????
the rules actually say the ball must be hit with an implement, but didn’t define it – or at least they use to, I suppose since Tennis went into the “for profit” sector they probably have more picky rules
The game we know as tennis was actually derived from another game, often called “real tennis”. It’s a strange game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_tennis

I thought a “tennis racket” was what was produced when the line judge made an egregious call in the finals at Ashe stadium.

I saw a video of the incomparable Bruce Lee playing ping-pong against two guys. Bruce was using nunchucks…and winning…
